For all his wild aggression, Maidana wasn't really connecting much. Remember punches to the hips, upper back, lower back and back of the head aren't scoring blows. Neither are dick punches.
Your right. A lot of his punches he threw knowing they wouldn't land. He had to be messy this way otherwise to stand in punching range and land good clean, scoring shots would leave himself open to get caught. They were banking on tiring Floyd and hoping that the exertion would fool the judges.

In amateur boxing where only scoring shots are counted Floyd would have won by a comfortable margin.
