Why is Canelos power so overrated? Light punching De La Rosa was able to hurt and drop Angulo, Canelo could barely buzz him. Where is this KO power, I don't see it. Canelo doesn't look comfortable at all getting backed up, Maidana would have a good chance of blasting him out in the later rounds especially at 152 where his stamina is even worse than normal
Canelo wins by a landslide, Maidana is a bum who won the lottery in being given a fight with the most over-hyped fighter of the last 5 years, Broner. Against Khan and even Alexander he was outclassed.
I did take a drained canelo at 152 into count. I'm not overrating canelo, Maidana has a style that's tailor made for canelo. He's a come forward pressure fighter. Canelo won't have to go looking for him, he's going to be there to get hit. Canelo has the advantage skill wise. I say canelo by ko because once a guy is there to get hit, canelo starts to tee off. Floyd even had Maidana hurt a few times, just imagine a bigger more powerful canelo in there.
Maidana is no bum he is tough as nails and is underrated by many. Yet at his best I'd say he's a B+ fighter. He's also smaller than Canelo. The smaller Broner hurt him in spots Also Canelo is no Floyd, if you leave openings he's going to make you pay badly. He does not have 1 punch KO power but he has quick hands and can definitely hurt Maidana. I'd say Maidan gets stopped or takes a beating over 12 rounds and loses by wide UD. Canelo has problems with movers, people that force him to lead. Maidana would be coming at him all night and getting countered by Nelos combos.
Maidana wouldn't stand a chance. Canelo's body shots would fold him. Maidana's stamina isn't great so he wouldn't be able to capitalise on Canelo being drained.
The real question here is can Canelo do 152 again? He did only a bit over a year ago but we all saw how that turned out for him.
at 151 maidana by ko at 152 maidana points at 153 draw at 154 canelo at 155 maidana split decision at 155 & a half prob draw again
I think Maidana is an overrated bum but at 152 I got Maidana because Canelo is pretty drained at 152 imo. I mean he can't even make 154 so forget 152
