    Trout after the fight: He was the better man

    This is exactly what Trout said after the fight idk how anyone can realistically say the Trout clearly won the fight. I agree it was very close I think Canelo won 116-112.

    I just played it again on DVR and wrote down everything he said in the post fight interview.

    Trout after the fight word for word: He was the better man. He was quicker he was stonger. He was the better man than me I have no excuses for tonight. I ask God that he helps me accept my defeat humbly. Again I have no excuses who won the fight the better man took it. He boxed a lot better then I thought and he moved a lot better then i though. He shocked us. To Trout Nation I am sorry I failed this time I will come back stronger.

    trout didn't land any punches, that's why he knew for a fact he didn't win, if he was in a war where there were exchanges he might have felt his punches were more effective than canelo's, but he never landed much of anything, instead he was the only one eating clean shots

    i think from here, we can label the people who had trout winning as idiots that should be ignored from future boxing discussions

      I finna watch the fight on DVR, just got back from the the live fight. Im still a fan of Trout, but he was the beaten fighter tonight. Props to Saul for a damn good game plan, and he showed far more head and core movement than he has ever shown, and I saw that from a box. Should be interesting to see it from the DVR, as I surly didnt hear any commentating while I was at the fight. Just crowd noise, which may double as commentary, being that it was a pro Canelo crowd.

        I dont think the bolded is viable statement. Trout had the skills to win but did not apply himself in the manner that he should have. The best man, with the best gameplan won tonight, and boxing won as a whole, because IMHO the right fighter had his hand raised tonight.

              It was refreshing to see Trout accept defeat I had him losing by a slim margin. Trout lost the fight imo but his stock rose tonight.

                I find those statements interesting, it was a close fight but the much easier case to make is Canelo's.

                Trout fought well enough that he has nothing to be ashamed of plus Canelo was man enough to give him the shot so Trout was man enough to admit defeat.

                  I scored Trout the winner, but have zero problems with Canelo taking the decision. Trout was throwing punches and dictating the flow of the fight, but he couldn't land ****. And the guy's power just seemed pitiful and nonexistent whenever he did land. Canelo connected with eye popping punches sporadically, but for the most part he stood there and did nothing (he showed beautiful head movement though). This was a bizarre fight.
