Comments Thread For: Austin Trout Angles To Land a Saul Alvarez Showdown

[-PBP-]

If that happens Canelo will gass in the fight, remember his latest fights, Canelo puts to much force in his punches, that's why he's not that active, if he fought like that all the rounds, he will be gassed by the 6 round.

I can see that happening. Against Mosley Canelo took breaks early in the round then picked up the pace later in the round. Trout will pick him apart if he sits back and waits like that.

Are fans really asking that 4 guys...2 of them who have a better resume than Canelo. Be part of a another eliminator tournament?

Your only as good as your last fight.

First off, I'm a Lara fan and want Lara to get the Alvarez fight.

Now that that's out the way, Lara KO'd Ronald Hearns in one round.

Austin Trout coasted over Delvin Rodriguez.

Delvin Rodriguez is waaaay better than Ronald Hearns. So by outboxing a tougher fighter you should be penalized?


That logic is flawed. It encourages taking on easy fights so that you can look impressive.

And in the mean time who is Canelo going to fight in September, Mexican Independence Day?

K9?, I just hope Cory Spinks doesn't beat K9, I just can imagine Oscar face lol!

Canelo should not be headlining a P.P.V. in september unless its against Cotto or Mayweather anything else should be on regular H.B.O.

lol yah it's pretty ridiculous...other fighters bust their ass off fighting tougher opposition than canelo and aren't getting nearly the same exposure or opportunities as him...it's a damn shame.

Hell there has already been at least 3 fighters involved in eliminators for ginger while ginger beat on no-hopers. Now people want more tourney's to compete for ginger while they pick yet another lightweight or old shot fighter for him to feast on?? Wow.

Yeah I don't get why fans are now acting like promoters, I'm a big Canelo fan but he fought plenty of guys who didn't earn their shot, hell he didn't earn his shot himself.

Honestly Canelo has been pretty protected so far. And, I get it, he is young, most of his fights are/were to replace the lack of amateur experience and blah blah blah. But, he is a top contender in the division and also a titlist he should step it up.

Why should he keep getting protected, while 3 of the 4 names that were mentioned keep on fighting the toughest comp out there? No, that's some BS right there.

And nobody brings up the fact that MOSLEY GOT A SHOT against Canelo and hasn't won a fight since 2009. 3 YEARS!!!!


FOH with this "earn a shot to face Canelo" shyt.

Canelo is the Cash Cow.. Has a huge following and will make any fighter their highest purse. He cant fight everyone at once.. He tried fighting Paul Williams, Kirkland.. Kid is willing to fight the tops dogs at 154, stop being a hater puto...

Only reason why Lara fought hearns is cause they robbed him out of the Williams fight where judges got suspended. He beat Williams then ko hearns in one round,

Delvin Rodriguez biggest win is over a brawling midget.
