    Yea Trout usually isn't this aggressive but James cuts the ring off pretty well and would benefit from the fact that Austin is not a big puncher, trout is a good boxer but i don't think he will be able to handle the relentless pressure and power of jk...

    About time. That **** should have been stopped a long time ago. That was horrible. This fight proved nothing, nothing but a showcase. Trout is obviously good, and LoPorto is obviously too tough for his own good.

    Yea Trout definitely has the style to give jk fits by outboxing him but can trout win without koing James and would he be able to out box jk for 12 rounds without being ko'ed...

    Trout says LoPorto didn't come out like no chump.

    Well...he gets credit for taking his licks like a man, but Frank was very much made to look a chump in there.

    Trout looks good imo. Slightly late stoppage though, guy was out on his feet about 30 seconds prior

    Looks like we have a new best division in boxing 154.

    Lara
    Kirkland
    Canelo
    Williams
    Trout

    That was all-out balls-out aggression nonstop bell to bell for six rounds and his stamina seemed fine.

    So, double the time and half the output - yeah. :yep

    How about Trout and Molina? :think

    If there's anybody who can deal with a slick high-volume southpaw...

    Trout would smash JK.

    Another good fighter to add to the list, Molina.

    I think Trout could take Molina, he has superior skill and I think the could negate the boxing ability that Molina has.

    This was my first time seeing Trout, and even though this fight was extraordinarily lopsided for a world title fight, he put on a very good show for TV viewers and his hometown fans. Not much power, but love his skill set and workrate!!! I'm already looking forward to his next fight, hopefully against a deserving opponent.

    Yea but come on this la porta guy or whatever his name had no offense at all, he hardly landed any punches, I'm sure James would land some good body shots to SAP some of that stamina, I just think after maybe one more fight with a top 154 pounder jk should get a title shot, in the event he should win of course, maybe he can fight Vanes or Lara, maybe Williams...

    I know he's the wbc mandatory but i doubt Canelo will be his next fight...

    I strongly disagree, I didn't see anything special, he just fought a c level guy and did what he should..

    They said during that 6th round that the Oliveira win over Toliver was changed from a TKO to a DQ. Wonder how that decision was made, maybe Jim Gray showed the ref a replay of the stoppage.
