So does anybody see Trout outboxing Alvarez and making him look silly?

Not saying it will happen, but it very well can. 98% of people here were saying that Cotto was gonna walk Trout down and TKO him but instead he flexed his jab and Miguel looked like a deer in the headlights. But ofcourse Cotto is shot and Canelo isn't. But it still can happen. I don't know about making him(Alvarez)look silly..But out boxing him is certainly a possibility.. I also don't know about Cotto being shot..I would not confirm that just yet..Esp if Cotto moves down to 147lb(which should be his next move imo)..

Canelo won't have the size advantage and Trout is the goods. Trout is hard to trap or hit to the body, and I can see his movement and jab keeping Canelo off balance. Id expect Trout to win a 8-4 style ud with fair judging, but that will never happen. Canelo wins a robbery.

But it all depends, if he is getting tagged good and his head is snapping back...despite Trout not having "GREAT POWER" you don't want to damage a young fighter like that Physically and yes that can do damage to you when your just taking punches over and over and not avoiding them Yes but Alvarez never been hit by a real JMW tho... Let's see how he reacts once he gets hit flush by one. My guess is he wont like it. Hell he didn't even look like he enjoyed being hit by the smaller Lopez.

No, they are not. Cotto was the best that Trout has faced! I can respect that but I just think that Canelo is a young hungry bigger Lion. While I have felt that Cotto is past his prime for a while now.

I say its 50/50. They are both the best each other has faced. No, they are not. Cotto was the best that Trout has faced!

Not sure how it would go down because there's a lot of possibilities but im hopinng for a Trout win

But ofcourse Cotto is shot and Canelo isn't. But it still can happen. I can definitely see it happening. Then, when the scorecards are read, they will read 115-114, 115-114, 116-112 all in favor of the winner, Saul Canelo Alvarez! Trout will have to knock him down five times to get a split decision win.

I doubt they will stop the fight. That will tarnish Canelo's WHOLE career. If he loses a UD they can recover and re promote him but that's gonna be hard to do if a corner steps in IMO...

This is Mosley vs Vernon Forrest all over again with Alvarez being Mosley and Trout being Vernon Forrest Forrest exposed all of Mosley's weaknesses, took away his Power as well as his hand speed advantage with that long jab and timing Some Fans only talk about the basic elements in boxing: Speed and Power and they think who ever have the advantage in those departments...WIN THE FIGHT! Sorry but boxing don't work like that, when you have the Smarts to go with your Physical Ability, to me that is the deadliest combination So what I see Trout doing is just flat out boxing circles around Alvarez and countering him to the point in which I think Alvarez will become reluctant to throw punches because he don't know how to get around Trouts Counters and Jabs, I see him either score a UD by a wide margin or I think Alvarez Corner steps in and save him from Further embarrassment...I just don't see what Alvarez does that will give Trout Problems to be honest and the fact that he did not test himself before going into this fight by taking on guys like Lara and Molina and even Vanes, I think that will comeback and bite him in the A$$...I think fighting a Slugger like Kirkland or Angulo would be much more easier to deal with then a All Around SKILLED FIGHTER If Alvarez shocks me and wins (Legit Win Not ROBBERY) then I will give him all the credit in the world and it makes Mayweather vs Canelo a bigger fight then it would be right now I doubt they will stop the fight. That will tarnish Canelo's WHOLE career. If he loses a UD they can recover and re promote him but that's gonna be hard to do if a corner steps in IMO... Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

Already on it buddy. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android That's good. The rest are just yapping.

Guys, why don't you put your worthless e-points where your mouth is? Already on it buddy. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

I can easily see Trout out boxing Canelo. He stands up straight. Can't fight going backwards. Doesn't have a high work rate, and picks on smaller opponents. I agree, except for picking on small opponents. I'm sure his managers and promoters play a huge part in that.

I'm pretty sure Trout is pricing himself too high in this fight. They pretend to want the fight and when it's served on their plates they start making excuses. Who would forget Kirkland? You must be a Canelo fan. Who would forget Kirkland was actually injured. I changed my mind. Add Angulo as one of the possibilites. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

Trout will win almost every round. Cotto is a MUCH better boxer and more experienced. He was the first to really outbox Shane Mosley and KO'ed Zab Judah in 07. Canelo went life-and-death with his less-accomplished brother. "Life and death" hahahahahahaha I like that.

In light of FMJ-SHO deal, I'm starting to doubt Canelo-Trout, I can't imagine SHO wants to endanger FMJ-Canelo for Sept. But if it does happen, I could see Trout outboxing Ginger, don't know about making him 'look silly', Canelo does have power, speed.

If this thing goes to the cards Trout is definitely not winning. Judges will be looking for any excuse to give Canelo a round. They're going to watch Pac-Bradley and use it as a good example of how to score a fight.
