It's not the point though. Trout earned it.
Josesito Lopez beat Ortiz who was scheduled to fight Canelo and got the fight because he "earned it in the ring". Now Trout did it.
You make a very valid point! Just like Lopez earned the Canelo fight, so did Trout. I hope Canelo takes the fight with Trout because he was also CLEARLY called out in front of thousands of fans and a lot of people watching from home.
I also read Oscar's tweet and thought it was complete BS. I really hope they don't go through with Canelo/Cotto.
I completely agree. I was surprised when Cotto left the ring because of the fight being held in New York. I thought he'd at least stay and give an interview for his fans in attendance.
The first, and only, live fight I attended was Ortiz vs. Lopez at the Staples Center. It was a blast and the ending was sure surprising! I hope to attend more soon.
Dont tell me GB and TR and going to start the year off booking events on the same night. Cards at the Barclays and MSG, come on.
Sadly, that's what it seems like. I read that Golden Boy moved Garcia/Judah to a date in February but Alexander/Brook will take its place at an unnamed venue on Jan. 19th.
harold lederman has no respect for defense and only cares about "aggression" even if it isn't effective aggression.
I completely agree! I was watching the fight with my dad and we kept wondering why Lederman commented on Martirosyan's aggression when it wasn't very effective at all. I know Lara was backing up a lot during fight but he was dodging and blocking Martirosyan's punches with ease.
