Problems with Trout's technique cost him the fight

[Silky-Flow]

It's something that has been obvious from day one. His combo's always look a little wreckless to me, sometimes it comes off and looks very good but when a man moves his head like Canelo did yesterday he just looks clumsy. He needs to find a way to put his punches together better if he wants to get that belt back in the future because arm punches don't win you fights.

Trout landed 20% of his shots on Canelo.

Is Canelo a defensive beast or is Trout just inaccurate?

Lets see.. vs Delvin Rodriquez Trout landed 22% of his shots.

So maybe Trout does have accuracy issues.

This is what I said on another thread,

Trout's offense was more built around finding an escape route as oppose to mounting on an effective attack, even when he came forward his weight was on the back foot, jus' ready to pull back. This is why I never found Trout's style appealing to me, good quality boxer but his style urks me to be honest, it really really does. I want him to commit to punches, show more faith in his offense.

And i'd also argue that his inability to put his punches together properly has effected his power because he rarely connects right on the button. I mean it was embarrassing how Canelo was laying on the ropes last night all gassed out and he was swinging away without making much of a dent. Canelo would have been in huge trouble if he did that against a decent and accurate puncher.

Like I always been saying Trout throws arm punches.

Pretty much, it's disgusting how after one fight posters on Boxingscene can elevate a boxer to the "The most ducked/feared fighter" in history club, I still remember how they claimed Canelo left the building while watching the Trout-Cotto fight because he didn't want to fight Trout.
