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

[KickMuck]

I don't know about the other scores, but Canelo 115-112 sounded about right, stone me homies.

Trout thought Alvares won, interesting, I like his humilty.

The problem isn't that Alvarez won, it's that the fight was out of reach by the 8th round. That is ridiculous and it screams corruption.

I don't understand ....Plz explain to me

[TitoFan]

Time for some accountability in boxing. The 118-109 judges..... can they be hanged?

What he said^^

[Violent Demise]

All Trout landed was the jab. And he missed more than he landed

To use your favorite phrase..... You don't know SHIT about boxing.

You were gonna bitch no matter what. Alvarez won. BTW nice showing by Cotto. It really does run in the family

Abner ain't shit. Doesn't change the fact you still don't know shit about boxing.

You think Trout won. Trout knows he lost. I rest my case.

He's in Texas and was booed from the get-go. What do you expect him to say? He DOES want to get home in one piece, you know.

So you saying Trout deserved the win?

[bcollins]

From here on out, I say that we as fans demand that judges be required to pass a rudimentary eye exam before being allowed to judge a fight. Who's with me?

[bzkfn]

That was a close fight. I thought it was 6-6 in rounds, but Canelo took it on the KD for me.

Some bullshit with that 118-109 score. Fucking hate open scoring too. It's like Suliaman thought "what else can I do to ruin boxing?"

[Spicoli]

Have to drag my ass outta bed for a A.M Sundayscoring, this was horseshit scoring. Last count I had Trout winning 5 rounds easily

Canelo was a one armed fighter and looked half assed in there. THe last Floyd I saw would sharpshoot his Strawberryy shotcake ass

[#1FightFan]

THIS MAKES ME SICK!!! this whole fight was sooooo bias it reeks of corruption. Canelo sucked at times and looked amatuerish. he landed here and there, yes. and he landed the harder shots no doubt. but he did not do enough to get this credit, these scores.

trouts jabs were numerous, he schooled canelo at times, although not powerful punches, but they are points!!! THAT did not matter to the judges at all i guess. Total Horseshit scoring.

the judges were tossing canelo's salad!

Yes, VD. I'm saying Trout deserved the win. One knockdown does not decide a fight. Trout landed more and was busier. Canela had the flashier punches and scored the knockdown, yes. But Trout was going to lose the decision no matter what. The robbery was set up from the time the fight was moved to Texas and the fucking judges were picked. Open scoring should be abolished and the next person who proposes it should be lashed in the town square.

[TitoFan]

It was a good fight.
Sulaiman got his wish and got away with murder.
Open scoring is shameful.
I now join the mob who wants prizefights involving Mexicans prohibited in Texas.
Another black eye for boxing.

End of story.

Tsk....well there goes my rigo money, hate to win and lose.

Trout would have needed a KO or a couple KD.s to win this in Texas, 118-109, let's you know this. I respect Austin's humility, at least he didn't bitch about the decision, he fought a good fight, the KD however, kind of doomed him.

One knock down is not all he did. He hurt Trout at least 4 other times and avoided most of his punches. Trout threw more and missed more. He never once came close to hurting Alvarez. You like claiming you ain't bias but you clearly showing you are. Cuz you were gonna bitch no matter what. I bet you actually scored the KD round 10-9 instead of 10-8 huh?

I do not agree ...In the fight i was watching Canelo was showing Great defensive skills ..when Trout had him against the ropes and threw busy flurries, Canelo blocked and dodged nearly all ....the only thing i could score trout on was the jabs

For me, the knockdown was the deciding factor. The rest of the fight was very evenly matched. It was a pretty knockdown though...
