    I think the key thing here is that he wasn't vicious Yet. At a couple months, a Pitbull pup isn't ready to take down a teenage German Sheppard. However, you give that Pit a chance to mature and the Sheppard will quit on his stool.

          Maidana doesn't look badass, isn't infamous for his one punch power(atlest I don't think he was,) didn't have the interesting backstory of a failed brainscan, and unlike Valero he doesn't have a bunch of cool youtube clips for kids to jizz over. College kids tell their friend check out this sick knockout, they then tell that friend he fell off a motorcycle/failed a brainscan and shouldn't be fighting. Next thing you know he's more popular than Maidana.

              Yeah, I actually meant to mention that Valero somehow pulled off the Kimbo-youtube effect. Maidana doesn't have the proper mystique/built in lore to go with his KO ratio.. Rumor has it Valero hurts his sparring partners! OMG I bet he'd kill Pac & Marquez. Wait.. Neither of them wants to fight Valero? They must fear his power! Imaginations are crazy.
