You know I'm fine with that. The fact that Trout needed a ko to win on the open corner scoring at rd 8 and behind that far makes me want to barf. As in puke. Trout lost the first 3 rounds on the way to the ring. He was losing a fight that he was winning obviously in the first 6 rounds. Explain that to me. At rd 8 he needed a ko to win. Explain that?
They give the scores out after four and eight rounds so after four rounds Trout knew he needed a KO. That changed the whole fight as Trout had to be more aggressive and take more risks. If they'd scored the fight honestly Alvarez would have been the guy who had to take risks from the fifth round onwards and Trout could have just sat back and countered him all night.

It was the WBA judge with the ridiculous scorecard as well.
