Comments Thread For: Austin Trout Fishing For Title Fight, Could Reel in Jermall Charlo

[boliodogs]

It's good to hear about a champion fighting a top 10 contender when so many champions including the other 154 pound champions are defending their titles against guys not even rated in boxrec's top 50. Trout doesn't seem to be fighting as well or taking a punch as well as he used to. Jermall is looking very good. I think he will stop Trout.

This will probably be a back n forth fight, with neither getting the edge for several rounds. I do think Trout is sturdy enough to hang in there and pull away mid/late rounds for the W. He'll haveta be on his A+ game though.

trout is glass! he's been down like a bilion times against guys who aren't even big punchers like lara, canelo, and random australian man. if charlo doens't ko him in less than 3 he's not a top talent. he's fighting trout so he won't fight williams. there is a reason this fight is happening and that one isn't.

Nice fight and nice card. Not necessarily big names but good matchups. Big step up for Charlo and I love it. Nice showcase for him too although it'll be hard to look good against Trout. I don't love Berto-Ortiz but I have a feeling someone's gonna get KTFO and that should make for great TV.

You could be right. I just think it will be more competitive than you do, that's all.
