    Trout on points.

    Really looking forward to this fight. Two young unbeaten world champions fighting each other is such a rarity these days.
     
  2. Agreed cracking fight could go one of two ways.Alvarez methodically picking apart trout with brutal body punching and educated pressure or trout spinning off canelo and making him look clumsy with fast hands and great timing.It is a genuine 50/50 fight where someone will make a claim to the elite especially with floyds last fight at light middle.
    If pushed i say alvarez possibly with a stoppage.He is heavy handed with better feet than people give him credit for and for his age great ring iq

    Yes I think its a 50/50 fight for sure. Some interesting variables to consider.
    I picked trout on points, based on the fact its such a difficult fight to call, I usually pick the boxer over the puncher in such a situation.
    But Canelo could just walk through Trout and make my analysis look silly...that's the beauty of this fight, such an interesting match.


    I agree. I was shocked when this was announced. Special respect to Canelo for taking this fight. He really didn't have to take this big a risk in his position. This is how boxing should be.
    I do worry trout may get robbed...but we shall see.
