Canelo is gonna beat the hell out of that boy. He'll lose a couple early rounds but he can walk through Trouts punches. Trouts body is gonna pay a price if he doesn't run the whole fight.

The drunk Trout will lucky to make it too the final bell.

I thought Trout was taller. He's in really big trouble.

I'm picking Canelo he the more talented fighter

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

I think people will be surprised to see how often Canelo is outboxing Trout. Canelo is going to lay hands on Trout. Serious hands.

Im leaning on Canelo to win right now 75/25 as fight night get closer it could change. Fight will be a classic though.

Legitimately Trout has not had any stiffer competition, in fact I would go with Alvarez. Power goes to Alvarez, speed could go both ways but I would say trout has better boxing technique. Will be a great fight!

Your 2B that it's the other way around?

I can almost guarantee you this will be the opposite. I think you'll be surprised to see ginger get left in the middle of the ring & boxed silly looking like a deer in headlights. When he realizes his power isn't great & Trout doesn't flinch when he lands hiss useless punches.

Hard to call. On one hand Trout has one quality win (Cotto), but to some surprise he won easily and showed good skill doing it. On the other hand Canelo has zero quality wins. Its hard to get a read on his skills because of the low level of opposition.

I'll take Trout by decision. It throws up a red flag that GBP will let Abner Mares fight any quality contender in his weight class, but won't let Canelo fight even one. Perhaps they see something in Mares they don't see in Canelo
