This just shows you how high of a standard Cotto has set with this competition: an undefeated belt holder who is ranked in the top 10 in the division is considered a step down. For many of the fighters who get nut hugged on this site, this would be a legacy defining matchup.
How can you try and discredit Cotto for this fight? Cotto deserves props for this fight, it's the defienition of high risk- low reward. I'm guessing you've only ever seen one Trout fight once and it was his last one vs Delvin.... watch some more Trout fights, dude is pretty ****ing good and definitely a legit top ranked undefeated JMW. He whupped David Lopez's ass as well as Canelo's brother- former champ Rigoberto Alvarez in Mexico! I cannot understand why Cotto chose Trout, there are quite a few better options that are much lower risk/higher reward. Strange choice and wouldn't be shocked to see an upset here. Pretty close fight imo.
Still hurting over the Chavez Jr. ass kickin huh? So turning to Cotto helps you feel better about yourself? :good
Miguel could have done a lot worse than Trout who arguably is the 2nd best 154 lb fighter (behind Mayweather) that he will have faced.
Trout just might Box Cotto's ears off! Don't be suprised if he beats him easier than Mayweather! Im being serious..
I've had that feeling since this was signed too. Trout is pretty ****ing good. I might lay down some $ here the odds are sure to be great for a Trout UD
