    Does Trout need a new trainer?

    Trout is a good fighter, he has good conditoning and is very active, but he can't fight on the inside to save his life, his jab is a slapping one and he doesn't commit to punches.

    Will a new trainer help him? I think so. Who do you guys think Trout is better off with? He has the physical ability, he just needs the polishing.

    I'm not so sure but, he looked like an amateur against Lara yesterday, had 0 strategy.

    His jab looked weak, there was no crisp to his punches, he needs to try someone else maybe.

    He still can be champion again.

      It really wouldnt have mattered who was training him for lara he still would have lost. I dont think he needs a new trainer, Lara just does everything better than trout.

        I picked Lara to beat Trout and he did. Lara is the better fighter period, but I think a new trainer will help Trout. I know he was with Louie since he started, but it's obviously not working anymore. As the poster above me said: 0 strategy.

          Well Lara is just too good for Trout. I'm not sure about a new trainer. That might help. He's good enough to be a champion again.

            I think so too, I ended up going to the fights last night a lot of people were booing but I like technical fights. If Lara and Trout fought 100 times Lara would beat Trout 100 times.

            I just think Trout would be better off with a new trainer, a part time trainer who's mostly a fire fighter isn't going to cut it at this level.

              There's only a certain level you can reach if you're a slick fighter. Yeah, another trainer can you teach you something different, but what you saw against Lara was his limit.

              He's be better served to learn to mix it up a bit more, but even then, that's not him as a fighter, so in actuality, a trainer won't do a thing. He's just reached his limit as a fighter.

              He's not gonna beat the Canelo/Lara's of the world. Simple.

                Lmao Trouts wife is hot

                I just feel like for example: if Roach paired up with Trout he could add much more to his offense. I think that's what Trout lacks, I think a world class trainer would help Austin tremendously.

                Lara is the best at 154

                  I get what you're saying, and I don't even disagree with it, but wouldn't that then take away from his slickness? I just think it's a double edged sword.

                  And yes, Trout's future ex wife, is my future wife.

                    Yeah I mean, Trout isn't exactly slick though. Maybe Virgil would be a better fit? I just think Trout seriously lacks offensively. Canelo will beat his ass again too!

                    I don't know I just don't think Burke is good for Austin anymore. He needs something else

                    Lmao your wife is ****ing fine doe
