Fighters who are/were relatively slow starters

[Ron Swanson]

Julio Caesar Chavez would take the first four or five rounds to figure his opponent out. He would gradually increase the pressure and force a very fast pace in the latter rounds.

Tito Trinidad needed a few rounds to get into his rhythm. He suffered a few early round knockdowns but would usually be able to up his pace and break his opponent’s will late in fights.

BHOP began focusing more on efficiency and economy of movement, especially early in his fights, after he unified the middleweight division at 36. He started very slow vs. Robert Allen, Oscar, Howard Eastman, and the strategy cost him a disputed decision vs Jermain Taylor.

Funny, exact guys that sprung to my mind

[El Kabong]

Floyd Mayweather Jr in his more recent fights...he's been like Bernard Hopkins but with flash.

Wondering if in his own way Wilder is showing more of this. At least when he fights good fighters. JMM and Toney. Santa Cruz lately. Eubank sr took a little time to start rolling.
