Good fight...Hurd is a patient counter puncher guy, but he's got the right dance partner in the more aggressive Trout. I can't see Trout winning, I can even see a knockout, but a solid matchup.

Is it at Barclay's for sure? I'm going. Hopefully it's at Barclay's.

Trout wins easily. Hurd was getting shut out by Harrison until the pressure got to Harrison. Only advantage Hurd has is that he is possibly one of the biggest Jr MW in recent history. The guy is huge which suits his come forward style. Trout can win this easily by boxing the socks off Hurd. Hurd is a big guy but slow of hand and doesn't really cut off the ring as well as he should, the thing about Trout is that he didn't look good in his last few fights so if he can come back well, he will win. If Hurd doesn't knock him out he wont win a decision. Either guy gets stopped by Jermell Charlo and Andrade at 154 though.

so when broner comes in at 145 and the fight gets cancelled, does trout still get to fight?

Looks like they finally found a fight Trout could win. His win over Cotto will always be his biggest
