    So if/when the WBO settles this by making Trout an immediate mandatory, does that mean Trout turns down the WBC tournament in favor of the WBO fight?

    Smith might have a decent chance against Trout, especially in the UK.

      Now Trout's suing Frank Warren for $80k for allegedly manipulating him out of the rankings. Good luck with proving that.

        This was a bull**** move from the WBO, they completely removed him from the rankings. "It was an oversight, doe."

        I'm glad Trout is standing up for himself and not letting them get away with it.

            Trout sues the WBA

            What a mess the WBA have made. Let's hope Trout lands a huge catch.
