Trout Says Canelo is no Different from Cotto.

Trout was supposed to be a tune up for Cotto, like Raheem was supposed to be a tune up for Morales Nah. Tune ups are supposed to be green, small, old and past prime. Not young, undefeated, huge, long-reach. Cotto was the tune up. Young huge Trout's mode of fighting in that fight was like warding off evil spirits trying to survive. All of Cotto's past opponents traded with him. Not like a terrified Trout.

''I hate cheaters'' supports Mosely and Peterson lol dumb ass munkey boi You sound mad,are you mad about something??

what happened to you not liking cheaters? I don't believe anybody likes cheaters..When their cheating..:stupid:

Trout clearly fought the worst version of Cotto. Cotto is a good fighter but hes been on a decline for a while. Just really hasn't brought any wow factor the ring. If Trout thinks Canelo is anywhere near what Cottos today he is in for a rude awakening. But the fact is,that Trout fought Cotto,while Alvarez does not have a single win against any fighter in the top 5 JMW...While I understand that Alvarez is live and one of the top fighters in the div..He's really(really)unproven..i think Trout has earned the right to pop off at the mouth a bit..

This and Donaire-Rigondeaux are my two most anticipated fights right now, and I wish they would just be made lumping official already.

I am a Canelo fan and I think he will beat Trout and probably KO him. I don't think Canelo is the same as Cotto at all. Cotto is 31 and in my opinion a natural welterweight. He is past prime and has been beat up badly by Pacquiao and Margarito. Even in his prime Cotto lacked stamina and did not do well under pressure. Canelo is a full sized 154 pounder and he is only 22 and getting better with every fight. Canelo is taller than Cotto with more reach. He is faster than Cotto and punches harder. He has better stamina than Cotto and thrives on pressure. Cotto does his best work with his left hand but Canelo is very good with both hands and combinations. Canelo has a great killer instinct. If he hurts Trout he will jump on him hard. Lots of assumptions here. How do you know if Canelo has good stamina? Which of Canelos fights tells you that? Getting better every fight? Beating up fringe contender from two weight classes below you is getting better? Thrives on pressure? Please explain how you came to that conclusion.

Sorry but I hope you lose. I will be betting $500 on Canelo to win plus points with Bushbaby. If his competition is less than stellar that does not make Canelo less than stellar. He has been fighting pro since he was 15 and he has more KOs as a pro than Trout's total number of pro fights. Please click the link & lay out your terms. But yeah, canelo has 41 fights & about 37 were cabdrivers & the rest either old, shot or small. Nothing to brag about.

I got Trout. It's hard to pick Canelo cause of his less then stellar competition. He looks like the real deal though. I bet my dad $200 Canelo loses. Let's hope I win.

Trout's main target is to survive the distance. Canelo's is to punish and KO his opponent. Trout hits, runs, hugs. Ref breaks. Rinse and repeat. Ref has a very important role to play in this fight. Canelo needs the ref in the Berto/Guerrero fight to be able to employ an inside game.

Another reason why I see Canelo winning this is because during the close competitive rounds, I see Canelo taking those rounds simply because his punches are getting a better reaction from the crowd, not so much the crowd but actually being more effective. Trout best be careful with that comparison, Canelo is an actual Jr MW who can crack, and most importantly has a right hand, which I'm sure Cotto's biggest fans can admit Cotto's right hand is non existent at times/ decent at best. Canelo's power is overrated. Especially as he's been matched against old, faded, smaller men. His TKOs over Cotto and Gomez were disgraceful ref jobs.

WBA champion austin trout (26-0, 14 KO’s) sees WBC champion canelo alvarez (41-0-1, 30 KO’s) using the same strategy as miguel cotto, trout said to RingTV. trout was able to neutralize cotto’s left hooks by staying at a distance, jabbing and grabbing when he would come in cotto’s range. if trout truly believes canelo will fight the same as cotto, he's in for a rude awakening. canelo may not have the same footwork as cotto but he is much more accurate with his punches and has a lot more power. many people say it's a big mistake for canelo to take on trout but i think canelo has the potential to knock out trout with a wicked body shot and i'm not even a fan of the guy. if canelo somehow manages to get past trout with flying colors, then i think the next big fight would be canelo vs. martinez at 154, that is if a catch weight is not possible (i'm thinking 157 lbs.) your thoughts? Keep thinking that Trout, Cotto is damage goods Canelo is a Young Buck I don't see how you can say they are alike.

This is a win win for me. One on hand, I hope Canelo wins because I want to see Canelo-Mayweather in September as a good fight and IF Canelo wins, he could be the real deal. On the other hand, I really like Trout. He's a great guy and a great Champion and I'd also love to see the Canelo train derailed :lol1: Or atleast the fanboy's reaction. I just hope for a good fight.

Neither has Trout... People act as If Trout has been there and done that the guy is 27years old!! He's barely fought that many big names Canelo is still very young, hates going to hate. Good for you bro!!:rofl:

He's right, except Cotto has far more experience & canelo hasn't been tested like he's about to be. Neither has Trout... People act as If Trout has been there and done that the guy is 27years old!! He's barely fought that many big names Canelo is still very young, hates going to hate.
