Comments Thread For: Canelo Drops, Decisions Trout To Unify WBC/WBA Belts

[GodInFleshSuit]

Glad Canelo finally fought a legitimate 154 threat. He finally gets a little respect in my book. That being said, I feel Trout didn't show up tonight. He fought overly cautious and barely let his hands go.

[Jam Jars]

No, not at all. When Canelo bob & weaved in the middle of the ring, it looked like it was by choice. In one round he was even having fun with it.

Only when he was at the ropes slipping punches, could you make that case. But even then it looked like it was by choice as Canelo seemed to try to lure him into one big counter punch. Canelo won this by Ring Generalship.

The only way to offset that would be if Trout was outlanding him by double margins, because nothing he threw all night looked effective. He didn't outbox Canelo and he didn't hurt him at any point.

He did that because he was tired................... You think he would be on the ropes throwing nothing back if he was still fresh? Being pushed on the back foot and just covering up gets points for ring generalship now? Clottey controlled the entire Pac fight if that is the case.

HAHAHAHAHA, this is classic right here. Jabbing makes you look scared now. Doing nothing really scared Trout.

It didnt make trout scared, but it did make him look like a dumbass punching nothing but air....


he was missing most of the punches he through

[Supreme Being]

Agree a 1000% with you he is very humble in robbery

Trout knows he won but well, no crying in boxing!

They will have Marquez move all the way up to 154 to get fed to Canelo. It will make a fortune in Mexico.

boxing is a fu4king joke....trout 154 landed out of 761 and alarez 120 land out of 440.....if u ad alarez winning ur an idiot

in past fight this clearly dont mean shait

[Cutthroat]

Alvarez is a joke, 80% of the right hands he landed were on Trouts chest and if you don't believe me re-watch the fight. The main punch he landed was the uppercut. If he really did land those shots Trout's face would've been busted up and we don't even go to the scorecards, think about it for a second.

from what i saw, canelo has some pretty damn good defense. made trout miss often. but his stamina is horrible, its whats setting him back from being great. he threw only 2 punches at a time instead of his usual combos.

[dnut17]

Trout didn't land hard enough shots end of story... This is how Canelo fights he fights in bursts he's a counter puncher by nature. Just because he was backing up didn't mean Trout was winning rounds. Pitter pat and jabs don't win fights. Canelo made his punches count. the right guy won a close desicion. With the exception of the 118-109 the cards made sence. I hate the over hyping too but you gotta give credit where its due. People calling this a robbery are straight haters.

Some of you are showing your boxing ignorance saying Canelo isn't ready for Floyd.
Trout had the reach advantage and was able to keep Canelo at bay.
Floyd would have none of those advantages. Canelo would have zero respect for Floyd's power and would walk him down.
Right now Canelo KO's Floyd in 8.
