cant remember exactly but i always score it on paper and i remeber i screwed up writing down my scorecard... i either had trout winning 7-5 but alvarez had a KD so 115-114 or i had it tied with alvarez up by 1 point because KD
Had it 114-113 Trout, many close rounds. Wouldn't have a problem if someone scored it 2-3 rounds in favor of Canelo. Trout was clearly the busier one with throwing that jab constantly. But Canelos punch were a lot flashier and had bad intentions, he had some great jabs that would pop Trouts head back and obviously that knockdown. But there's no question he needs to work on his stamina, he takes pretty large portions of rounds off.
My live scorecard, haven't re-scored it on a replay.
C T
1 9 10 nothing in it, T jab, some power from C may have landed
2 10 9 power from C, landed a few clean plus power to body
3 9 10 T jab and landed left cross, good defence too
4 9 10 close
5 10 9 close round, close fight
6 9 10 jab and volume for T, C best + harder shots though
7 10 8 trout maybe made it 10-9
8 9 10 slow round, C did nothing
9 10 9 C good 1 and a half, quiet min, then great defence final 30sec
10 9 10 definitely T
11 10 9 C with power
12 9 10
113 114
I re-watched it again the other night and both times I had it 115-112.
I honestly can't see how so many folks had Trout winning that.
He didn't land many punches of real significance and even his weak arm punches were being made to miss by Canelo.
Austin said he lost, and that's because he's a realist and class act.
This was a frustrating match to watch. Trout was spamming jabs, Canelo had nice movement, but would literally stand there for 5 seconds doing nothing after his bob & weave.
only watched it once live,,,
but i thought canelo did enough to win...
i had it 114-113, and 115-112 would have also been reasonable...
alot of close rounds,, canelo gassed and fought in spurts the latter half of the fight, but trout was too inexperienced to capitalize,,,
good fight,, and i think both guys learned alot from this bout,,,,,,
