    Lets be real

    Canelo Vs Trout was not that good of a performance by Canelo. Its amazing how theyre bringing up that fight now like he dominated Trout.

    First of all there was no way Trout was gonna get a fair shake. The open scoring was an absolute disgrace, i think one of the judges had it 8-0 canelo after 8 rounds. Not only that, with the open scoring canelo knew he had the fight won going into the final rounds so he just coasted since he was gassed as **** and couldnt do **** but fake defensive moves.

    If it wasnt for the knockdown canelo looked like **** and was getting completely outworked by trout.

    I'm not saying trout was robbed since he didnt really do that well either but that performance was probably about as good as broner was against paulie.

    Most didn't even think Alvarez won. The open scoring made the fight a joke, we have no idea who the better man between the two was that night.

      I think Canelo clearly won. It was close though. 7-5 with an extra point for the knockdown. The open scoring was a joke and the guy who gave canelo like 11 rds should never judge again but the right guy won IMO. Idk how anyone can say he or Broner didn't clearly beat Trout and Malignaggi.

        I scored the fight for Trout by 1 round even though I thought Canelo looked like the better boxer. He just took too many rounds off

          Really? I think it was quite obvious Canelo was the better man. It was close but clear in my eyes. He even outslicked Trout

            The second we heard those scores after round 8, that was it. Trout knew he couldn't knock Alvarez out, and Alvarez knew he didn't have to try. We have no idea who the better man was. A close, competitive fight became a joke.

              Lets be real trout did absolutely nothing to win that fight other than throw his weak ass jab it wasn't a great performance by canelo but he outboxed the guy most people picked to outbox him. He landed multiple uppercuts and straight rights that hurt trout and not to mention the knockdown . Again he didn't completely dominate but he showed a different side of his game that no one thought he had and you have to take into account the open scoring really hurt the end of the fight and at the end of the day people will always find something to say about any figters performance . Just curios what exactly do u mean by fake defensive moves??

                Canelo had the fight in the bag after 8 because of open scoring. Those rounds, I think would have been way different if both fighters didn't know the scoring. Trout became more aggressive, and Canelo just sat back. It woulda been a better fight if Canelo would have fought the entire 12 instead of cruising to the UD.

                    Canelo showed good head movement that I didn't know he had. I was impressed. However the open scoring was a joke. I also think the scores were a joke.
                    With that being said the kd was the difference in the fight for me.
