alvarez vs trout

it's signed and sealed for may 4 and I will be all over trout, to me alvarez is highly overrated, offensively he is very good, but defensively he is simply average, trout will box this mans ears off and be landing that long jab all night long, I would not be suprised to see a late round stop in austins favor here, I will not bet on the ko, simply on trout to win it, trout to me reminds me so much of winky wright, not stylistically in any way, but the fact that he is a much underrated boxer who does not have all the glamor and glitz but gets the job in an effective and consistant way, trout BIG 

nice write up, no fear Saul might be the " house " guy

their is some  fear of alvarez being the money guy and with a mega fight on the horizon with floyd hanging in the balance, it does make it harder for trout to win a decision(which is horrible) but I truly feel that in the later rounds trout will be kicking alvarez's a**, alvarez will not out box trout, he will find this out early, he will be forced to fight, the thing with that is this is what trout wants (and all boxers) a man coming right to them and fighting, alvarez's defence is average when he is being patient and boxing, his defence will be worse when he is forced to fight more aggressive than normal,  trouts is better defensivley and a much better boxer and he will win big enough to get a clearcut decision.

whats you also have to take into consideration is the way trout called out canelo. hes coming off his biggest win of his career and doesnt even leave the ring before publically calling out canelo. this was obviously prepared.

if you like trout you should buy him now as i think trout will open as a +250 and get bet down.

Seen any numbers posted anywhere yet?

alvarez-135 and trout+305

both pinnacle and matchbook do not have a line for this fight.

even though trout will probably have to win 8-4 there is no way that austin should be a +300 dog.

for guys who actually know what they are talking about those odds are crazy, but based on mainsteam mass appeal and how overrated alvarez is by the public, who will be betting on him  I think that the line makes sence as far as vegas goes and I will take advantage of this by making a nice size play on trout
