Rematch or what?
How did you see the fight?
Both fighters missed alot of punches and it looked sloppy at times?
Where does trout go from here?

Sturm.
needs a rebound fight,and he's on the slide, not a lot of options left at light middle except lara i suppose.
he could try and tackle martinez or GGG but both are bad fights after a loss.
Kirkland at 154 is still a good fight
He should challemge Mayweather and scare the shit out of him...
Fight a legitimate bum, then a top contender OR for another title. But def he should take a bum for a tuneup. He can get a lightly regarded journeyman and put in some work for a few dollars...Quote:

Go for the winner of Angulo/Lara. Keep his name in the mix or he will fall back into the obscurity he was in prior to Cotto.
Brian Rose could use a jump in class.
Pretty safe fight for trout too.
Trout should win a alphabet strap and rematch cotto.
If I was Trout id be avoiding Angulo/Lara winner like the plague. Lara is horrible to fight and makes anyone look bad and Angulo is a killer and trout aint been in with a puncher like him before. Rose is a good shout. Easy fight for him and gets him some exposure outside the US although I dont think Rose would take the fight.
If I was him Id be targetting the Smith v Molina winner and if he wins that the winner of the Cotto v Alvarez fight for a unification fight.

Smith v Molina is a pretty good option but Smith is a Mayweather fighter and Trout is a Haymon fighter. It's probably more likely that Floyd fights Smith lol although I believe he will fight at 147 at least one more time. I doubt very much that he ever gets a rematch with Cotto or Alvarez.
Kirkland at 154 is a good move, and I think the Smith/Molina winner is a good move. Isn't there another Russian titleholder in the division?Quote:
