I'm taking Austin right away. I have a feeling he may be at least a 2-1 underdog, and I have this fight as 50-50 all the way. Alot of unanswered questions from Canelo. To date Trout has a bigger win in Cotto then anyone Canelo has ever beat(Decrepped Mosley doesn't count). I hope I'm right because I think there is gonna be alot of value in a Trout bet May 4th. Anyone else as excited to see this bet line as I am?
If the fight takes place I am betting on Canelo and I think he will be about a 2 to 1 favorite. If he were a huge favorite like 4 to 1 I would not bet on the fight. I don't think he will be favored by more than 2 to 1 because Trout is undefeated and coming off the good Cotto win. There might be enough people betting on Trout to keep the odds close to even. I am curious to see what the Vagas odds on this fight will be.
Yeah, I just got through reading that thread. I hope Trout is right about it being very close to finalizing. I'm leaning toward Trout at the moment, but just barley. I'm rooting for Canelo though. I hope he can prove he really is a good fighter.
same here carnal
I'm just assuming it is for the sake of the topic. It's close enough to done to start the thread, at least.

To me, Cotto is a lot more similiar to Canelo than Canelo fans might wanna admit. And that is a bad sign if he's gonna be gettin in the ring with the guy who just almost shut Cotto out.
I criticize Cotto alot but he didn't get shut out by Trout. It was a clear win for Trout but it wasn't easy and it wasn't a shut out. Cotto was very competitive. now you add the fact that Canelo is, younger, faster, stronger, is a better combination puncher and it becomes a 50/50 fight.
The only problem with Canelo is that he's more stationary than Cotto and that might be a problem
I bet if you wait you can get better than +200 on Trout, I think the odds will start fairly close but Canelo will shoot up until about a month beforehand with Trout slowly getting back closer to even, especially in the last week.
You should be able to get real good numbers on Trout though if you feel his chances.
I might bet my house on Canelito tbh

Last I heard, this fight wasn't a done deal.
