Showtime: Erislandy Lara vs Vanes Martirosyan II & Jermall Charlo vs Austin Trout RBR

:!:

 

I honestly think Trout's going to look fairly frail here and get beaten up. He appears to be well past his best and is now being fed to someone who's peaking.

The Charlo's are being groomed to be stars, a feel good story, humble brothers winning belts at the same time blahblahblah. People forget Trout was dropped 2x by Lara, 2x by an ancient Dawson, Alvarez.

 

Wow, all 3 judges had Jackson way ahead, what a shame...

This seems to happen to him way too often, almost like a sparring partners mentality or something

 

Problem is...they...just aren't that good or that exciting...

 

Jackson comes across as a classy fella. Rooting for him in future fights. Charlo comes across as an arrogant ****. (Maybe just annoyed Jackson lost by not protecting himself, he could have taken a knee or held on or spat out the gumshield, but he turned his head and gave Charlo a free shot)

 

Both fighters handled the interviews with class.... nice to see

 

And that's why a guy with average power just won a belt by stopping a fighter after he was lucky to of won a round during said fight

Good matchmaking.

 

Trout is getting rolled out like a carpet.

 

No Doubt about to get his championships back at 154 by boxing the ears off of the Charcol Brothers.

 

Wasn't his chin, he turned away from the opponent covering his eye, instead of taking a knee. Everybody gets dropped if you give your opponent a free shot, and don't see it coming.

 

Agree on good match making, more thinking that they won't be stars...they lack star appeal, they are decent guys, plenty of skill but...nothing that screams "stars"...they are being groomed for a role neither is fit for

 

Trout 10-9
