Why wasn't Canelo able to do what Maidana did in the first Mayweather fight?

[Hype job]

Because Floyd didn't allow Canelo to do what he allowed maidana to do

Yeah, "he did it for da fans"

All for da fans doe...

[NearHypnos]

A guy like Floyd needs Trinidad and Hearns power to deal properly with a guy like Maidana. Maidana reminds me of Tyson. You have to let them feel your power and respect you. Those guys aren't wrapped too tight. Is it a coincidence that Mike and Maidana share the same birth sign?

With this I believe if Pac realizes that Mayweather can punch, the Marquez's KO will replay on his mind, and he will be a lot hesitant in there, allowing Floyd to pick him off.

I agree with most of this. Hell, look at Mayorga vs vernon.

I dont think you can really discourage Maidana though... We've seen him hurt and come back from it. Tyson was also fierce when he had his focus. Gotta show them you're not afraid and fight them off or frustrate them with skill and a good jab.

Because canelo didn't let his hands go..

Too many fighters make the mistake of trying to be patient with floyd and not give him opening for counters, but all that does is turn the fight into a tactical slow paced affair and floyd will box ears off and coast to a victory..

It's better to be aggressive and let your hands go and get lucky, instead of being patient because you have ZERO chance of outboxing floyd in a tactical affair..

Maidana had the right gameplan early but didn't have the endurance and stamina to do it the whole fight...

Yup, the more time he has to think and sense distance/timing the worse off for an opponent. Maidana just wildly coming in throwing in his odd herky jerky rhythm at awkward angles gave Floyd some issues.

[Bigg Rigg]

Because he's not a bullrush fighter, and Mayweather "didn't fight that way for the fans" against Nelo. Nelo would have possible KOd him if Mayweather "would have fought that way for the fans."

Nah, Canelo wasn't going to KO Floyd. And he even walked Canelo down at certain points during the fight. That was a bad night for Nelo.

You ******s are the worst thing to happen to the boxing world, double digit IQ morons. You only hype Maidana because Floyd struggled with him. And Maidana's resume really isn't so good. He is Rios level.

You are an extreme ****head if you believe Maidana and Rios is on the same level. Rios is at a lower weight and doesn't have a jab like Maidana or an awkward style. Maidana moves his head and doesn't telegraph his shots because he throws weird. Rios is predictable. Especially the Rios Manny fought, who just came off a loss. You only hype Rios so Manny resume won't look like crap because you know it is crap.. ****** prick.

Manny's resume is crap? I'm done.

And who the F did Maidana beat? hyped Broner who doesn't belong at Welter? Lopez? Soto Karass?? Got shut out by that mediocre Alexander and practically shut out by Khan.

Manny got outboxed by Erik Morales who lost his next fight. He got knocked out by journeymen and then knocked out by a blown up lightweight. Fuq you talking about doe?

He only rematched Erik Morales because Morales lost his last fight.

Pac just fought Algeri.. Stop ****riding Pac.. Pac not that good.
