I actually believe that Trout would present Mayweather with a good challenge. He's a natural junior middleweight, who is rangy, a southpaw, in good condition, and in his prime. He performed distinctly better against Cotto than Mayweather.

Here I thought that species was extinct.

I do. Hes earned his spot and has a spoiling shifty style that I don't mind. His win over Lopez was respectable and he grabbed an oppurtunity and stepped up his game over Cotto who was off giving Mayweather a solid fight and would undoubtedly be seen worthy enough for a title shot if a judge or two had been on the bong during he and Trout. For a minute there was mention and concern that he would still get the fight regardless of the loss

Trout is the perfect style and an off brand and solid preview to what he can expect from a Mayweather, should he not lose. Hes certainly no Floyd, but hes much more of a complete package hitting his stride than anything Canelo has faced in a very long time. I think its a coin flip right this very moment.

I wanna jump in this little debate and clarify some things..

First of all, Cotto never took floyd to the " brink ".. haha c'mon seriously. That's such an exaggeration..

The thing is, Floyd fought down to Cotto's level and his style and pretty much fought in the pocket througout the fight yet Cotto still couldnt damage him..

Just as Floyd did against Mosley, he fought Cotto's fight and still kicked ass!! That's what's so great about floyd.. He fought out of his comfort zone and he still toyed with cotto..

The only fighter who took Floyd to the edge was none other than Castillo..

What Cotto did was nowhere near what Castillo did and that was against a young Floyd..

I have Puerto Rican buddies who always claim that nonsense and i always laugh hard..

Floyd was never in any type of danger when he fought Cotto..In fact he was so comfortable, dude didnt view Cotto as any kind of threat that he decided to sit in the pockets which was so unlike him...

Cotto didn't do nothing... OScar Delahoya was more effective against Floyd than Cotto ever was..

My unbiased view is that Mayweather beat Cotto with ease. Cotto took a few rounds, possibly 4, but Mayweather still won comfortably. On the other hand, over the last couple of years, I thought Cotto gave Mayweather his most difficult fight.

From a different angle, in my opinion, Margarito, with possible cement in his gloves the first time, and without the possible cement the second time, roughed Cotto up more than Mayweather.

Back to Trout though, he started off as a -300 to Canelo. This is a more even fight in my opinion that those odds suggest.
