What was your Canelo-Trout score card?

[SeekDaGreat]

WITH the knock-down I had him comfortably up by 3 points (2 rounds.)

The facts about the fight: Trout was wild as all holy hell, this his aggression wasn't always effective he only

He only Outlanded Canelo by 40 punches (most of them not power punches, just "jabs.")

He threw 400 MORE punches than Canelo and only landed a quarter of his total punches.

He was honesty getting tagged at will by Canelo's hard shots (hence him being out on his ass.)

Canelo landed something like 45% of his punches (most of them power punches.)


Trout: was trying to steal the fight by pulling a Maidana and just swinging at everything and anything, thus getting caught with the cleaner shots and losing a round outright by getting dropped. He expected his work rate to pull out the victory.

Imo, anyone crying robbery is most likely a Canelo hater, lord knows this board is infested with those.

I can see at the very least crying for a draw and that's being VERY generous to Trout.

Imo it was a clear win for Canelo, can't see how the robbery army always does into force here.

Can't remember exactly how I scored it but I had Canelo winning the fight.

I think it was a 7-5 fight either way. More a case for 7-5 Alvarez than 7-5 Trout. The fight was ruined by the open scoring. We knew the outcome was corrupt no matter what happened in the ring. I don't think we learned who the better man was that night.

Had Canelo by a few points.

I agree with this post. I had Canelo winning but the open scoring absolutely affected the outcome of the fight.

I thought it was a close fight. Haven't really rewatched it but remember I thought the scoring was ridiculous.

It was open scoring as well if I remember correctly. Something like a 7-5 Canelo or even a draw was my scoring I think.

I remember having Trout up by a point or two. It's one of those fights that could've gone either way, depending on what your judging criteria focused on. It came down to volume punches or effective punches. A lot of the rounds were very close except for when the knocked him down in the 7th.

[IFightDirty]

I had it close for Canelo. 7-5, 6-6 with the knockdown being the deciding factor. Open scoring ruined the fight. It took the suspense out of the last few rounds. If they're going to do open scoring then they should announce scores after each round so a fighter can at least adjust according to the score if need be. Announcing it after every 4 rounds, a fighter can think he's winning those rounds to only find out he lost them and by then its a bit too late to adjust.

Trout by a couple of points. 114-113 probably. Wasn't impressed with Canelo's performance going down the stretch at all. His stamina is a big problem.

[A-Wolf]

I remember feeling like it was closer than Canelo should have wanted it and being disappointed at his failure/inability to intensify his attack and get inside on Trout and get him out of there or try and put him down a few more times. That was unfair of me of course. Poor Canelo can't be blamed for who he is. He's doing the best he can lol.
