Why was Mayweather able to stand right in front of Canelo and walk him down?

Canelo wanted to load up on every shot. Every time Floyd hit him he had to reset his plan in his head.
He was way too tight in that fight.

It's funny u mention that because I rewatched him vs Ortiz and was surprised how he came forward and walked him down, he didn't fight that way vs pac but I've been studying the difference between him and Lara and against certain ppl he will stick and move like Lara and against others he turns into a stalker

That was definitely one of mayweather's best performances but canelo had a horrible gameplan and I'm sure the weight drain made him slower. Canelo should be fighting at 160.
In retrospect, canelo should have just came in at 154 and dared Floyd to cancel the fight.
But yes, Floyd was great that night.

By sharpshooting him. Canelo couldn't mount an offence without getting tagged, he couldn't pursue Floyd without getting tagged, Canelo could barely land punches on Mayweather.
At the end of the day punches hurt. It's easier to endure pain when you get a sense of accomplishment, but when you're losing exchange after exchange frustration sets in: some cheat at the stage, some wilt and some dig deep; Canelo wilted.
