Even though Martirosyan and Trout both lost last night they put on a pretty good performance. Martirosyan should fight Trout. This should be a pretty good fight. Lara made Trout look like an amateur. This should be a good undercard fight. Who do you have winning?
Trout UD. Martirosyan fights like a sparring partner. Andrade, Smith, Lara, Nelson and Charlo - he fought on even terms with all of them.
I know what you mean about the sparring partner part. He'd put in good effort one round, then do nothing the next. Does he actually want to win or what. I'd take Trout over him as well.
I think Vanes ud, the think that frustrates me about him is he has decent speed and power, but doesn't throw enough. If he doesn't fight Trout, I like to see Vanes in with a puncher like Kirkland.
Vanes actually started very good, very strong against Lara. He had the speed to go along with the aggression and wasn't letting Lara find his rhythm or give him time to think. It's a pity Martirosyan faded and couldn't be consistent enough, and being consistent is Trout's specialty, but even he admits he lacks the power. I think Vanes vs Trout is actually good even match up. Vanes wins 1rst half while Trout wins2nd half. Both can take a punch too. A draw wouldn't surprise me.
