Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Canelo vs. Trout Showdown Reportedly Looms For 5/4 - Boxing News
Wow! If this comes off it will be a superb event. Cannot believe they're throwing Canelo in the deep end when he is so close to a Mayweather fight. I was still kind of hoping for the Cotto fight as I thought it'd be a war but it will be good to see Canelo tested against a true 154lber.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
I honestly don't think Trout has much of a shot if this does happen, but it'd be nice to see for sure, a terrific co main event.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
This will be a good fight, it could be a difficult night for Canelo as Trout is no push over, Canelo can
be hit and trout will hit him. But all in all I favour Canelo, to be the winner on a close hard fought decision
should be a good fight.!;)
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Im going to stick my neck out here and say Trout will win,if he performs like he did against
Cotto he has a great chance,but if its a close fight Trout will get no joy from the judges.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
I'm surprised there hasn't been more of a reaction because alot of people have been calling for Canelo to step up and take this fight. If we get this and Mayweather vs. Guerrero that will be some PPV. Arum will need to take note of how to pack a show for future reference. GBP know what they're doing.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
This is a very good thing. If Trout falls over in 2 or pulls off the upset this is the fight that needs to happen. I don't doubt they were considering the last Cotto we saw...and that would be a sham e.
Trout is a cutey. Nice styles clash. Exactly what was the last quick jab Canelo tasted.....Gomez ???
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Two good quality fights with questions to be anserd in the ring.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Canelo is the real deal and will beat Trout, he is improving all the time and although he has fought easy opponents he has handled them well. No one can say he is protected if he beats Trout.

Trout to me is a solid fighter, and they can be very hard to beat he may not be spectacular but he
does boxing well. Win lose or draw Canelo will no he's been in a fight.!;)

Good opinion, @Master. Canelo very well may be the real deal and a win over Trout would vindicate all the people out there who feel the same way. I'm not sure Canelo beats Trout though, which is even more the reason why he deserves credit if he takes this fight. Trout looked good against Cotto and he has stunk out the joint before by fighting on his back foot and moving around the ring, which he could very well do against Canelo.
I have a question for you as a fan of Canelo: Are you convinced of Canelo's chin? I'm not sure that I am after seeing him shook by Cotto's brother.

Canelo has a solid chin from what I have seen of him and he will not have to worry too much about Trout or even Floyd's power. Saul just has to be able to handle their movement and boxing skills. Saul would beat Cotto.

Canelo has been wobbled a couple of times,And he really should be stopping fighters
of the caliber of Hatton and Rhodes,im still taking Trout on points.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Good match-up and good test for both fighters.
Glad to see them do the right thing instead of trying to stuff a meaningless Canelo/Cotto match down our throats.

Agreed, although I doubt it's in the interest of fairness if this comes off. Cotto probably doesn't want to fight Canelo coming off his last night out, otherwise you can bet he'd be the opponent. I'd like to see Miguel drop back to 147 if he really wants to stay relevant, he could gun for a rematch against Malignaggi or something like that for an easy bounce back.

BREAKING NEWS-AUSTIN TROUT HAS BEEN ARRESTED
Boxing champ Austin Trout arrested in El Paso on suspicion of public intoxication - El Paso Times
The fight may be off due Trout's heinous criminal activity....;D
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Hah, what an idiot. He's probably lucky the police got there when they did though. If a pro fighter assaults someone seriously they aren't getting off with a slap on the wrist, wasted or not.

I'd hope Trout isn't the type to get drink and assault people, but he is the type to get really drunk in public.
I think its a bit silly to arrest him for public intoxication unless he was falling down drunk or making a scene.

Buzzed at 2 am on New Years eve and among a rowdy crowd.....the nerve.
Re: Canelo vs. Trout Close for May 4th 2013 on Mayweather Undercard
Can't see them risking Alvarez with a tricky southpaw proper 154 pounder like Trout when a gigantic Mayweather PPV payday is just round the corner. They'll go on seriously considering him and not ruling him out until they sign some welterweight to fight him. Maybe they'll take a risk that Angulo won't land a bomb on ginger's chin. Alvarez Angulo would sell out the Staples Centre as well. They could do two cards on one night and put both the big fights on one PPV.

Who else in the 154 divison does everyone want to see canelo fight apart from trout..theres no one!
We all know it will end up being cotto as that will make the most money..or will it?
Cotto may try to win another trinket and then take on Saul to justify fighting him. If this is purely about money then they will fight each other next in May.
