    Yeah that's exactly what I ****ing took away from it. This is the second time this jerkoff got comprehensively outboxed for the first 8 rounds, only to luck out because his opponent gassed.

    Trout is good but lack power and as he ages he is slowong down. I think this fight pretty much ends Trout's career

    good fight. trout by far a better boxer but having no power killed him in the end.

    weren't you a huge Margarito fan? A huge weightcutter who used his size to wear his opponents out?

    Trout could have got a draw at BEST(let's be real he wasn't knocking Hurd down), and he was already finished. Good stoppage. He would have took unnecessary punishment. Trout shouldn't have loaded up so much in the first half.

    If Floyd Mayweather had a good punch, he would knock everyone out in 4 rounds.

    Trout is a elite boxer. There is no one at 154-160 with the boxing skills and quickness of trout with a 1 punch KO power.

    Yeah, and I'm also a huge Austin Trout fan, and for the record, this sack of crap isn't on Margarito's level, if that's what you're hinting at.

    There's a reason Harrison and Trout gassed... it's from Hurd's pressure. People who can't give a fighter respect for a win are scumbag fans.

    Trout had a bigger size advantage against Cotto than Hurd did against him.
