    Canelo is the underdog, right?

    I know he may be the draw, but he's yet to face someone as good/big as Trout. I think it's safe to say that Canelo is the underdog in this fight...am I right?

              He's a little better than a 2/1 favorite.

                For me, here's the problem in picking this fight.

                Canelo has done absolutely schit in his weight class so I have no real way of evaluating how he'd fair against one of the top JMW's. Trout is good, but let's be honest, he's not the best available JMW. I still think Kirk, Lara, Vanes and as much as I hate his style, Molina are still in the mix as well.

                Anyway, back to the point. Point is, I don't know if Canelo is good or bad because he hasn't fought any good measuring sticks. Couple that with he's going up against a Top 5 JMW that I wouldn't completely consider the best as of yet, and you got me kind of split down the middle... It's one of those fights where I'll know who'll win after the first 2 rounds.

                But to make an accurate prediction before the fight, I can't because I simply don't know how Canelo fights against someone his own size/skill level.

                  The canelo haters are saying Trout will destroy canelo this and that blah blah blah so to them canelo must be the underdog.

                  Truth is Canelo should be the favorite.

                  Trout is garbage.,

                    He's the favourite.

                    And that was obvious he was going to be.
