Comments Thread For: Trout: Hurd 'Highly Mistaken' If He's Banking on My Inactivity

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

NEW YORK Austin Trout is thankful that he has received this title shot, especially since he lost his last fight. The former WBA super welterweight champion just wishes so much time hadn't passed between his loss to Jermall Charlo and his shot at Jarrett Hurd. Trout (30-3, 17 KOs) will end a 16-month layoff when he challenges the newly crowned Hurd (20-0, 14 KOs) for his IBF junior middleweight championship October 14 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn (Showtime).

Should've been Charlo vs. Hurd, and Lubin vs. Trout! Trout and Gausha don't deserve title shots.

Trout should win this fight. That's why Lara wanted Hurd badly and stayed away from negotiating with Andrade.

Holy crap I knew Trout was coming off a layoff but 16 or 17 months?


Oh well. I still got Trout winning this

Trout is Haymons official 154 Gatekeeper

Trout will fight smart and win by decision.

Hurd is huge...

If Hurd comes in with that same kind of mindset he did against Harrison, eat punches for 10 rounds, while looking for the KO, he'll lose.

The pairings should have been:
Hurd vs Gausha
Lubin vs Trout
Lara vs Charlo
