Some people can go on stage and do their thing within the 3 minutes they're given. MF always liked to be relaxed and have fun. Even in the Mike Douglas and Dinah Shore clips we've all seen, he clearly feels constrained by the time, while still trying to be himself.
I also agree with other folks that Mr. Carson wasn't particularly interested in Maynard's style. I also think that kmamf has written some useful thoughts. Other knowledgeable folks have also made useful and even important contributions to this topic, and I'm remiss in not noting them.
