Trout - Lara is on !!!

[Ron Swanson]

I scored it a draw and I don't think that's unrealistic

I can see the draw if I tried hard enough. But that's besides the point. I just don't understand how some people say that knowing the scores some how hurt Trout. How? If anything they should of helped him. The scores showed him exactly what he needed to do to win. The fact that he didn't do it isn't the problem. That's understandable. The problem is he never even tried

I think it hurt him because he knew he couldn't do his thing and settle into a boxing match. So he tried to lead and use volume.

But it's beside the point because he simply didn't do enough. Open scoring, normal scoring, whatever, he didn't win and he didn't deserve to win. The rest is just excuses.
