    A combination of genetics, his fighting style and struggling to make the weight.

    I was going to make a thread on this.

    Canelo fights the wrong style for his gas tank. He throws too many hard explosive punches, he puts wayyy to much into every punch he throws, he rarely throws scoring pot shots. He paces himself alright, but he just needs to stop committing so much toward every punch he throws.

                Because he didn't have a long amateur career, let me explain: In amateur boxing you try to touch your opponent's head with your gloves, it doesn't matter how hard you hit him, u just have to touch him to score points, so you learn to throw quick punches without 100% power on them, If you do the same in pro boxing for the first couple of rounds like Mayweather does, you'll easily win the rounds, frustrate your oponent, break him down systematically and have a lot of energy left in the latter rounds and you can then really put the beating on the guy you alread wore down. Canelo can't do that, Canelo puts everything he has in his punches, kinda like Mike Tyson, difference is Mike Tyson was a master of cutting off the ring and feinting before he lets his bombs go, Canelo has a lot of learning to do in these departments. He definitley needs a voice of an expert in his corner, with the way he's fighting now he's gonna gas out and get embarrassed against any fighter that can move and make him miss.

                    2 problems: He isn't in his best weight class. He puts too much force into every punch.

                    Dude does have power but he forces the power too much and tires himself quickly. He also drains himself too much, I could see him fight eventually at super - middleweight but he needs too quite fighting at Junior Middleweight. Weight draining does alot to your body.

                      Just as some fighters naturally hit hard or are fast some fighters have more or less natural stamina than others. Canelo was blessed with fast hands and power but maybe not with natural stamina. His stamina is not bad and he has never lost a fight because he ran out of gas. He is young and improving and he trains very hard. I'll bet Cotto gets tired before he does.
