im basically showing off that i got box nation switched on!!!! didn't see this first time around. cagey first round
Ha nice one but i think it's a free preview at the moment till 1.30am. Fight was definately interesting and surprising how well Canelo managed to slip punches. I had the fight around 7-5 to Canelo(115-112) Although Trout was the busier fighter, alot of his punches missed and Canelo landed all the eye catching punches despite his low punch output over the 12 rds.
If Canelo takes the approach he did in that fight he won't win tonight, but he did do well and the result was correct.
i think the way canelo is laying any leather on Trout at all is pretty impressive .Trout is staying as far away from him as he can possibly get and lunging in with jabs from miles away
Canelo will land on mayweather tonight, question is will it be hard enough and more importantly will it be often enough and clean enough to do any damage. To get back on topic, i can understand the people who had the Trout fight close but Canelo clearly landed the better and cleaner punches and hurt his man, i'm glad Canelo was given the UD.
8-4 Canelo. Other than the first four rounds, which he split with Trout, that was Alvarez showing a very complete performance. It was disappointing seeing Trout complaining in Boxing News this week though - bad loser.
why is he complaining now? he admitted after the fight he was beaten fair and square by the better man, what did he say?
"Canelo may have beaten me that night, but he is not the better fighter... "In the first four rounds, I was making him miss and making him pay, but open scoring is such a *****." It comes across as very sour to me.
well that straight right in round 7 and the dozen uppercuts he walked onto have obviously scrambled his brains
We hear how huge Canelo is but Trout looked easily as big to me?? and Alvarez stiffened him many times so i am assuming mayweather will feel them shots im sure... first time i seen this fight ...very very impressed 116-112 for me
loving it... its big fight week though so i dare say its not always so good? think i might ditch BT sports for Boxnation instead if we have fairly regular fights?
i would have gladly paid 20 quid for mayweather v canelo anyway ,probably the same for garcia v matthysse so its looking like a decent investment already... its kinda weird sky very rarely do the big usa fights
