Trout/Canelo is a true 50/50 but I'm leaning toward Canelo taking it in a lil barn burner of a scrap.
Trout out-boxed and out-fought Cotto and really dominated dude, but Cotto still made most of the rounds competitive and still put hands on Trout especially that left hook. Cotto's face after the fight told the story. It's obvious Cotto ain't bout that jr middleweight life but Arum and Floyd kinda gassed him up for it though.
Arum promised him a title shot against Foreman after the Manny destruction. Cotto went through with it and milked that shyt with easy defenses. Then Floyd comes along and tells the whole world how much better Cotto is at 154 even though facts is facts and that nikka ain't beat the same caliber of fighters at 154 that he did at 147. Cotto along with 80% of boxing fans fell for that shyt and people look at him against Floyd as a true 154lber when he never really was. It was really just a fight between two natural welters that happened to be at 154.
Cotto stuck in a bad place now. He prolly can drop to 150 or less, but he gotta keep this whole 154lb myth going. Cotto would prolly clean shop at 147, imagine Cotto vs Berto/Ortiz/Paulie rematch/ Alexander etc..instead he gotta choose guys like Kirkland, Lara, Trout, Canelo, Angulo, Molina, Smith, dudes who would prolly push his shyt in. His bed been made and now he gotta sleep in that bytch.
