How Many Rounds will Trout need to get a win over Canelo?

HaglerSteelChin

As Canelo is expected to have a major showdown with Mayweather in September, the question remains will the WBC influence the judges in the Trout contest?

My best guess is that if Trout wins eight rounds instead of 116-112 win, he gets a 114-114 draw to keep his WBA title. He likely will need nine rounds to win the match.

What is your opinion?

At least 8 to tie, 9 if he gets knocked down. 10 at least for a win.

I lean towards Trout who's more proven against cotto who is still world class. I think Alvarez can make a fight of it. But most likely alavarez robbery.

He's in good hands with Haymon. The decision will be fair.

Without being knocked down or having any points taken away, he would need 7

Duhhhhh

Canelo will land the harder and more thudding blows. Trout would have to win 9 rounds convincingly without taking too much punishment.

I give it 9 as well. Most close rounds will be given to Canelo.

9 and up. Historically, whenever a "money" fighter has a huge upcoming fight, they'll do everything in their powers to give it to him.

9 and up. I guarantee you, if Trout wins most of the rounds, you'll here, "Canelo landed the harder shots." "The judges don't have the same view as the TV audience." "You had to be there, to actually hear the shots Canelo landed, it's different when you're there live."

9 and up, bank on it.

I agree, Haymon is the equalizer....there shouldn't be any corruption because if that were the case, then Cotto would have gotten the nod over him in their fight.
