Comments Thread For: Trout Surprised Cotto Never Even Mentioned Rematch

Totally agreed!! Talk that sense..

It was a series of bad events gone wrong, switching camps for Florida, wrong game plan, altitude, distractions, taking training lightly, and having an off night. He shoulda rematch him, him ,his camp, and a lot of cotto fans did act like that fight never happened, like trout never existed including myself

I think he had rigos trainer Pedro Diaz at that time, but I are right the corner was weak as ever, last time he had a sorry corner and was basically training himself was when he fought PAC, he had his chief 2nd be his full time trainer, around that time he was a mess with the whole his uncle situation, but when he fought trout he thought it was a walk in the park and trained lightly

Lame ass excuses. If he lost because of that reason, or any of the reasons mentioned above, then he would have been confident in avenging his loss. But he didn't, in fact he never mentioned Trout again. He knew there was no version of him that would win.

I don't blame him. Trout is tall and rangy, and he's a slick and cagey southpaw. That's a nightmare for anyone.

Trout is obviously just looking to keep his faded brand out there by mentioning a popular name knowing Cotto is planning to retire. He may even be trying to coax his way to another BIG fight with Cotto knowing his style poses problems for Cotto.

It's not really that hard to understand. I like Cotto, but it's simple. Trout's boxing style, movement, stance and range troubled the shorter, stockier Cotto who I also believe underestimated Trout as a challenger and it was simply a "pick" gone wrong similar to when Erik Morales and co. underestimated Zahir Raheem. The best version of Cotto would have trouble with Trout even though Cotto is the more accomplished fighter simply because of styles. I could see a scenario where Cotto could beat a more faded and overconfident Trout. But I'd say 7/10, Trout wins on "styles make fights"

After beating Cotto, Trout's best opponents since then have been Canelo, Lara and Charlo. He lost to all of them convincingly. He's simply looking to rebuild. He can't live off the Cotto win forever.

I did mention that trout did beat cotto fair and square, no excuses just facts that were beign stated at the time.

Trout Surprised Cotto Never Even Mentioned


We are not. Cotto has bigger fish to fry and no one holds not asking for a rematch against you against Cotto.

I haven't met one person clamoring for a rematch but you (due to your fading career). Trout need Cotto more than Cotto need Trout, he's a first ballot HOF without the Trout rematch.

When the star/A side fighter never wants some get back after a loss it's very telling. Freddie Roach and Cotto fans always downplay the Trout loss but Cotto never wanted to run it back.

Cotto won and got robbed by a Black guy... Generally, Blacks beat out Latinos and Latinos beat out Whites and Home Country generally beats out all else... in the rock-paper-scissors of gift decisions. See Mayweather v. Castillo, GGG v. Canelo, Pacquiao v. Bradley and De La Hoya v. Mosley 1 and especially 2, and then see De La Hoya v. Sturm.

Cotto beat Trout and got robbed because Trout is Black - simple as that.

Lol that's some ****** shit

Why would he? This is the issue i had with some puerto rico posters on here. Cotto is on his last legs after 16 years as a pro, he isn't looking for a tough fight as his last hurrah. He would look for a winnable fight to say his good bye. But some Puerto rico fan thought he could still take on GGG/Canelo winner........Delusional

[soul_survivor]

I was shocked too. Also shocked by how little rematch talk there was after the Canelo fight.
