        Canelo vs Trout simply because of the levels they can go to. Donaire & Rigo can go unbeaten from here on out and will never be big PPV stars. They will be similar to a Ricardo Lopez. Maybe even Trout is in that same boat but if Canelo wins then he can start on the path to maybe being the next Oscar.

        Even if Trout wins, that opens him up to fight a mega PPV star in Mayweather. Donaire-Rigo maybe better P4P but it doesnt carry any weight casually or will change boxing in any way. The Canelo-Trout fight could lead to another star. Again, Canelo can turn into Oscar or Trout could get a Floyd fight and win

              Definitely Canelo. Trout

              PPV implications
              Both have more then a dozen fights and earned their way into this fight and both can win this fight .its who makes more mistakes loses a tight decision ,i wouldn't doubt a SD occurs and even a rematch

                I'll go with Canelo v. Trout on this one. IMO this is the fight to make in the division(154). Also fight will gain a lot of attention and really boost popularity(and let it be said that they have sold a ton of tix and made a lot of money already in gate)

                Donaire vs Rig? This would be closer competition if it was Donaire vs Mares, which was THE fight to make at 122.

                The win will have no sizeable affect on popularity with either fighter also.
                Example:
                Donaire was the headliner of the card in Carson at THDC in October, but the crowd was their to support Rios and Alvarado(I know I was in attendance). There were a decent amount of fans there to see Nishioka, and an even smaller amount of fans that you would say were there for Donaire. I mean people honestly got up and walked out after the Rios fight, they didn't even care to stay and watch Donaire.
