I'd like if someone went back to threads when Floyd was at 140lbs-present and bring up all these boogie men that were hyped to beat him that either lost and became irrelevant or he eventually fought and whooped. I still remember the most hate was around the time of when he fought Ricky Hatton. That's when Tunney and the rest of the morons really started flooding the forums with the ignorance that we are accustomed to today.
LOL.
"Floyd's ducking Vivian Harris!!"
So many classic threads from the old days.
In all fairness Trout just dominated Miguel Cotto who gave Floyd his toughest fight in years. We will learn a lot about him when he starts fighting other contenders like the Charlos, Andrade, Vanes, etc.
bullsht scorecards, have watched that fight twice, it's easy to score and both times i've come up with trout winning by 1 point
floyd beat cotto clearer
I still think Highly of Trout! As far as beating Mayweather? NO OF COURSE NOT! But I do think he can get back to the top with the right trainer, not sure if he changed trainers yet but someone like Mark Breland would be a excellent trainer for Austin Trout talents! Trout has skills but seems to be lacking as far as attacking offensively and setting up other things. No disrespect to his Trainer Louie Burke who been with Trout since the beginning but sometimes you need that former fighter that can show you some tricks
I expected him to continue to fight like he did vs Cotto when he looked more hungry. It is like he got to the top and just got too comfortable :nonono:

now all the sudden Trout is garbage?
Nope. Trout a decent boxer but his chin is suspect at the highest level.
Trout has only lost to the best two @ 154 (Canelo and Lara.)
Yet, on the other hand, he's nothing special.
The posting quality here has truly deteriorated over the past two years. It would be pages of "floydgay" and coward now.
Oh sh*t, I just realized why. This was right after KTFO6 :rofl:
sadly Manny and Margaritos face looked alot worse after the fight
giving a mediocre performance is okay aslong as you don't have a busted face.
nice logic
People want Floyd to lose. There is always the next guy he is ducking that would beat him to most people out there. There doesn't need to be actual concrete reasons and if it's a guy Floyd obviously isn't going to fight at that point the better, that way they can say he's ducking. I'm not a Floyd fan, but I recognize greatness when I see it.
I'm not sure Canelo beats him, but I would love to see that fight.
nice unbiased post,green k
I can easily see Austin Trout beating Canelo and Mayweather, do you think he can?
my girl was watchin telenovela "Spanish saop Opra" she heard canelo's name there..
