He fought on Shobox once last year and fought Delvin Rodriguez a few months back on the Tarver-Kayode card.
trout is somewhat negative but still possesses classy boxing skills, and any cotto fight is a good one action wise, so this is a good fight, not to mention it's trout's biggest. good decision by cotto. he'll pull in serious cash against anyone at msg and it's a legitimate bout at 154, no qualms whatsoever with this fight. cotto wins this, it wont be easy because of trout's style but cotto can box and bang. i'm glad he isn't giving into the pacquiao catchweight curse.
