If Trout Beat's Cotto Is He An Elite Figher At LMW?

Yeah simple as that.

 

If by elite you mean top 3 LMW then sure, but LMW is a pretty weak division right now. On a side note, Austin Trout has no idea how to score a fight!

 

Of course. Cotto just gave Floyd a competitive fight. Cotto instead of going downhill is slowly gaining his confidence and hunger back.

 

Yes, most definitely.

 

not happening

 

Kinda. Cotto, like Mayweather, isn't really a natural 154lb fighter. And Trout has obvious advantages in size. Like lewishamboy said though, LMW is a pretty weak division right now... so depending on how he wins, he should be near the top of the pile.

 

id like Cotto to humble this trout.

i kind of smell an upset though

kid seems hungry.

if the odds are nice, 10 on Trout UD might get me some cash, more likely to lose it, but thats why its a bet!

 

Yeah, didn't he give Malignaggi something like the first 6 rounds against Cano. I was like WTF is this nicca watching.

 

Trout getting laid out he has a glass jaw I'm calling.it.

 

OF course. Like aussie commentator said "When you beat a legend, you become a legend"

 

And once he realised how out of sync with the rest of the showtime guys he was he gave Cano the next 6

 

trout will win. cotto is too damn short and will get his little ears boxed off. will it make him elite? not sure, he will have proved he could beat a blown up super lightweight..... but if cotto wins it will prove he beat a full fledged junior middle

 

kevin mcbride a legend?

 

:nono
Danny Green!
But the argument can be made for McBride also.
