Isn't Mayweathers in-and out python style reministent of point Karate fighters in some way?

I thought about this lately how some of it overlaps more than people think. Especially his side-on stance fighting were the weight distribution is identical to karate as well.

Or am I totally crazy here?

I was going to say Mayweather too, because he controls timing & distance and knows when to dart in and out.
