    Wow. Boxing has been so dry lately well at least to me. I have really been looking forward to this fight since it was announced. I keep hearing Trout is the dark horse of the division but I have yet to watch him live.
    I really do not recognize any names on his resume other than David Lopez and Alvarez(Canelo's brother).
    Rodriguez is obviously more tested and from what I have heard should not even have a loss on his record. He is actually the taller of the two as well.

    I know Rodriguez always comes to fight and if Trout is as good as they say this has the makings for a great fight. Definitely the best fight of the night.

    The others I am skeptical about other than the bantamweights who I have never seen....

    I almost forgot about this one, lets see what "My big toe is swollen I think I may have a slight, but not to serious case of to much sodium intake aka gout" Trout has to offer.

    I must admit to not knowing a lot about the smaller guys but its meant to be a closely contested fight, and I know damn well Trout vs Rodriguez will be. Tarver vs Kayode and Wright vs Quillin may be ugly if the veterans get old but, the Tarver fight especially, intrigues me.

    I think as far as competitiveness, this is probably the closest fight. . But style-wise, something tells me this will be a dull fight. . . Both guys prefer to fight off the back-foot, and neither might be too eager to take the lead.


    I think the best fight to watch will end up being the opening fight, with the bantamweights maligna, and santa cruz, followed by the main event, Tarver/Kayode.

    Quillin/Wright will be a sparring match where Peter dominates. . . And Trout/Rodriguez has potential to be one of those fights that never really truly gets going. . . .

    the thing is, if delvin's in there with a guy who prefers to box and stays within the framework of an outfighter's gameplan, then he'll start to come forward. he obviously gets hit alot, but delvin is good at switching gameplans mid round, or between rounds. he can go from a boxer puncher, to pure boxer in a split second.

    Good point. . . I also really haven't seen too much of Trout either, so maybe he'll be ready to get down, and dirty if need be as well.

    this card is hit or miss. it has potential but then again u got tarver who had sum boring fights all of kayodes shobox fights are boring but i think that one is going to be decent,

    winky was always pretty much boring , so if hes winning n things go his way he would prefer a boring winky style so i hope he actually loses i want peter to work him n put him away.

    d-rod n trout - i dont think it will b boring it will b the best fight or maybe the opener like some one else said but im not sure who they are . once i see there faces ill know them
