Saul "Canelo" Alvarez vs. Austin Trout - Saturday night fight/chat thread

[Spicoli]

Word is that the Austin Camp is complaning about the judges and have said: "Either they changes the judges or there wont be a fight"

Of fuck, that's all we need, a fight called off at the last minute, the weigh-in is tomorrow, I guess we'll find out then.

Swear Alvarez is cursed with signed fights falling apart Really though I can't see anything coming of it. I don't think Trout did himself any favors when he didn't raise a hand when they cancelled the first date and moved it to TX. He sounded like he was just glad to be there and THAT was the time to voice concerns.

I don't either, it's too close to fight time, which is only 48 hours away, gotta wonder though if Trout isn't getting cold feet about fighting in Texas.

I would It was pretty shitty the way they just shifted things, didn't pass the smell test. He, more so camp, should have spoke up.

Don't they choose judges not too long after the fight gets signed? Why wait so long to start complaining.
Anyway, the fight will go on, you can bet on that. I don't think the Cotto fight is going to prepare Trout for what he's going to face in Alvarez, Katy bar the door., Cinnamon boy is going to let it all hang out.

Told you this fix was in. I believe I may have said that Austin would need to shot him to get the decision.

Are you ready.......Lawrence freakin Cole is the ref and the judges are all WBC home boys. Stanley Christodoulou, Rey Danseco and Oren Schellenberger.

Its bullshit and I wont blame Trout for pulling out. The moment Alvarez crowds him Cole will call the tko. Its pathetic and Jose was practically cheering for Alvarez at the press conference. Still cant figure out how the WBA has stayed silent here.

No Gale Van Hoy? Maybe they can bring Duane Ford in from Vegas to make it fair.

Eh, I don't believe Alvarez will need any help from the judges or the ref, Austin is going to get his ass kicked.

Stop lying. Anybody that knows boxing, knows that Stanley Christodoulou has always a WBA boy. He and Mendoza are homies. Christodoulou is even on the WBA fucking Committee. So how the fuck is he gonna be loyal to the WBC? That's just straight stupidity right there. If Trout is complaining it's cuz he's getting cold feet. It's that simple

Look that's just bullshit. Sure he has reffed a few WBA fights and if you want to talk about "anybody who knows boxing" you would have to be mentally dwarfed to not see the fix being played here so if the shoe fits. Jose is probably on the Wba committee and you go review these refs and the record and again these judges serve on all kinds of boards and committees so freaking what? That's just straight up naive right there. And the other two worms are from Texas and also know where their supper hangs. Its not really surprising that you defend this horse shit. I mean you defended Margarito. If you were even a tad objective on Mexican fighters and what is obvious in this case since it moved from the Mayweather card I might not talk down to you so much. Sincere delusion is understandable but in small doses.

What difference does it make either way? Alvarez has sold 40 000 tickets for the fight tonight and is potentially a gigantic PPV star for years to come. I'm guessing the WBA would prefer 3% of Alvarez's purse for his future fights rather than 3% of Trout's purses. All sanctioning bodies are the same when it comes to money.
