Silvestre scored two knockdowns in the round, including a left hook that left no doubt. Escobar was out upon impact, crumbling to the canvas, leaving the referee no choice but to wave off the fight without a count. [Click Here To Read More]

The winner of Erislandy Lara and Austin Trout will become a rising star at super middleweight. I hope they get it on.

This Alvarez is worse than his brother so no big surprise. Trout is like 99% of the fighters from New Mexico, soon as they put him with a guy that can fight, bye-bye... Last great fighter from NM was Bob Foster, since then sub-par fighters, drug addicts, etc...

I watched the whole fight, Trout simply jabbed better, hugged better, and ran better, never really hurting the mechanical Alvarez. Trout will lose whenever he faces a guy with better technique. Alvarez showed resistance, like all Mexicans.

Maybe the backs from New Mexico but not the Mexican New Mexicans.

Johnny Tapia was not subpar.

Fight wasen't as exciting as I believed it would be.

So is going to be LAra vs Trout, good with me

This "TOMATO CAN" Alvarez NEVER deserved to fight for a World Title, never mind to even have 1..Alvarez fought & barely beat another Tomato Can(Nobuhiro Ishida) for it... & it was obvious that as soon as he faced a real contender he would loose his title..& it just happened on his 1st defense!!!
