Recovered the damage that Paulie did. Well done, sir.

I thought Paulie deserved the decision in his BKFC fight.

I watched this fight and although trout won the fight he was still getting caught from time to time against a fighter that's way past his prime and was an mma fighter too.. i thought these boxers would totally outclass these type of fighters in a stand up match?

He is not a former WBA light middleweight champion. He won the "Regular" title. Floyd Mayweather had the real WBA belt at the time.

And Palomino already got the dog crap beaten out of him by former featherweight journeyman Dat Nguyen, but Dat got robbed on the cards.

Yeah you right but still the level between trout and palomino in terms of just boxing was a pretty wide. Because palomino was a MMA guy and a journeyman one aswell but in that BKFC league on paper he was undefeated and a 2 weight champion so thats why he was seen as a top fighter in there rankings and trout dealt with him easily

Toggling between rules requires adjustments that can't be ignored; and those are easier done when you're young; but credit to 38 year old "No Doubt" Trout, who after a distinguished 43 fight career in the majors, just smoked perhaps the best P4P man in the BKFC house. Regardless of shifting rules, there are levels to the fight game.

Like I said, former journeyman featherweight boxer Dat Nguyen absolutely dominated Palomino already and got robbed on the cards. It was a 4-1 fight. Dat backed him up, landed more volume, landed more power, did more damage and got the L because he was in a pay dispute with the promotion.

Palomino is nothing.

Trout's last good win in a boxing ring was in 2012. He's 0-5-1 against ranked fighters since then (lost to Canelo, both Charlos, Lara, and Hurd; got a draw against Gausha).

And he did outclass Palomino. It was a super easy win.
