1st. yes, Angulo was coming off a lost to Lara, but it was a very competitive fight where he dropped Lara twice. Besides, Canelo was coming of a lost as well. BTW, Can you name 5 better 54'ers in late 2013 than Angulo?
2nd Kirkland only L other than Canelo came against Ishida, 5 years and 6 fights before the Canelo fight. He was clearly not coming off a loss moron.
3rd Trout was an Undefeated, super welterweight champ when he fought Canelo. Not to mention, coming off a victory over Cotto. You're right, he wasn't top 5 when they fought, He was probably top 3 in that div.
4th He didn't fight Cotto at 154 clown, he fought him for the Middleweight LINEAL Champ. even though Cotto was MASSIVELY undersized for the div, there wasn't 5 better fighters at 160.
