Actually agree with Johnny boy on this one. Trout looked slow, and had very poor punch accuracy. He may be more active then choc, but he will miss, again, and again, and choc will win very easy and very wide ud imo. and YES i am willing to put money on the line!
Mundine is what they call shot. Aged, injuried (or just age really, it happens), weight drained and got KOéd less than a year ago. But even then he is in with a shot against Trout. Even a shot Mundine is by far the best Trout will have ever been in with. For a world champion Trout is average. He is not mobile and fast enough to keep his hands so low. Has he ever faced anyone with a fast left hand, looking at his record you would not think so. LoPorto tried hard. Its tough work being in with someone much better than you. Its also a long flight to the US.
I too think Anthony Mundine has a chance against Austin Trout. But if Mundine is shot, as you say he is above, how you think he could be capable of beating an at peak undefeated world titlist with 200 amateur fights to his name is beyond me.
**** off goose, I was still out from the Friday night fights in Melbourne, I went to them live, something that would probably trigger agoraphobia in you, you ****ing pencil necked turd.
thats what I was trying to point out mate. Yes Trout is undefeated world champion, but look at his record - who has he fought? and look at the linage(help me on that one Oz) of that belt. He holds his hands far too low, and is not the fastest guy. A prime Mundine makes mince meat of him, a shot Mundine still has a chance. Trout is the most over hyped, padded record, undefeated world champion you will find. Not hard to see why Boxa went that way.
There were some parts of the fight where Trout was swinging away (like Zelenoff) and Frank was doing nothing to make him miss (like Floyd Snr).
I think people are grossly underestimating trouts stamina and work rate. That alone will give mundine hell. Whats mundine going to keep him off with? I'l bet mundine spends lots of time on the ropes. Lots.
