Comments Thread For: 'Fighting Words' - Canelo-Trout? Don’t Hold Your Breath

Don't forget the undercard fighters used to lure fans to the Canelo fights. People paid to watch Gonzalez v PDL, but cinnamon got the big money for a no risk joke of a fight. Canelo isn't drawing huge crowds without a lot of underpaid help. They spotlight Canelo, give him top billing, but surround him with real warriors to sell the show.

Alvarez went out like a weenie by leaving the fight. He can beat the shet out of Trout if he mans up and faces him but will he? Probably not.

Don't forget the pimp manages Trout

Al the pimp haymon manages Trout and swings a big hammer. Even sammy the pimp and his 2 chimps will add some pressure on GBP.

The Racket Squad: Nothing Fishy About Trout!

Austin is a high level, skilled and willful prize fighter.
He deserves this shot.
He earned it the hard way.

Saul is taking the cowards pledge:
Money before honor.

Trout beats Saul.
I would bank my kids college fund on it.
Yup. I have more faith in Austin than De La and Ginger Bread Boy have in themselves.
After 45 years around the sport, I can smell Austin's win from here to Tijuana.
And there wouldn't be anything fishy about this Trout victory!

Canelo welcomed fighting the winner of Josesito Lopez and Victor Ortiz after he realized he was going to be fighting a 140 fighter. Then he only wants to fight the winner of Cotto-Trout if the winner is Cotto?? What a Pansey. If Canelo opened his mouth, the fight would happen.

Andre Ward has been talking about this on twitter, and has complained that Canelo ducking Trout would show just how much boxing has become about the money. Boxing is about fighting the best he says.

Someone had to point out to him that he's fighting Kelly Pavlik next.

Canelo is obviously being protected to keep him undefeated to ensure high revenue coming in. Sport of Boxing is ridiculous. Bunch of greedy, leeches and blood suckers who could give an elderly **** ass about what the fans want.

Yeah but Andre Ward cleared out 168 so a Pavlik fight for the moment won't hurt his image. Canelo hasn't fought anyone at 154 to note.

Alvarez won't fight Trout after that fight. He disappeared before the end to ensure that no questions could be fired at him.

Trout would be a high risk fight that would derail his hype.

This writer assertion that Canelo vs Kirkland/Angulo would be bigger than Canelo vs Trout is flat out wrong. Trout just beat one of boxing's stars in Cotto on a world stage and because of that, the casual fans now know who Trout is. Canelo vs Trout would sale alot more than Kirland or Angulo.
