The trifecta at 154 is the real deal. Charlo-Lubin is gonna be a big fight. Trout-Hurd on now.

Groves crushed Cox btw

Trout/Hurd is a really good fight. Unexpected. Trout doing well.

Hurd also objectively terrible. HTF is he a champ? He might have taken the sixth because Trout began trading.

Which might have turned the fight. Hurd fighting with his hands down and winning the 7th. Trout is gassed.

Just switched this on at start of round 7. Pretty fun fight. Both guys look exhausted.

I don't like the Charlo brothers personalities, but they are awesome fighters to watch.

Why not? It shouldn't have been made the main event in the first place. Everybody knew that Charlo's fight was going to be more entertaining.

Nobody expected Lara to be challenged. He needs to fight Charlo.

What a dud. I mean Pulev had no chance to win anyway but Takam will be lucky to get past the second round.

Hurd did a lot more damage and Trout was powerless several rounds before it ended. Hurd was surprisingly patient and disciplined and just marched Trout down. I had him winning every round after the second despite the commentators. Hurd looks like he'll get killed by top tier opponents, but Trout seems like he has good basic skills, and Hurd just slowly tore him up.

No way he barely touched Trout in the first few rounds.

What happened was that Trout didn't have the power to hurt Hurd. Once Hurd realized that, defense didn't matter. It was a matter of waiting for Trout to gas out before attacking.

Honestly, Hurd is not a good fighter. He has horrible footwork and no defense. He has solid power but it isn't enough to overcome his technical flaws at the top level. Guys like Charlo and Lara will destroy him. Hell, Lubin would beat him too.

Trout is a talented boxer who could never get over the hump and into the list of A-level fighters. Sure, he beat Cotto. But he lost to Canelo, Lara, Jermall Charlo and now Hurd. He doesn't have the power to pull off an upset against any of those guys and he's now past his prime. He'll be at best a B-side on main cards until he decides to hang it up.

I agree with most of this, but still think after the second round it was a slow beating of Trout. Everyone gave the fourth and fifth to Trout because he looked better, but he got hit a few times and took damage, whereas all that he gave didn't do much. Agreed, Lara or Charlo are better boxers than Hurd.

Anyone watching Burnett?

Only tuned in but bookies have him at 1/33, so it's been a bit of a cruise for him?

Could be 5/6 years ago I mentioned itt he'll be a world champion. There'll be a few parties around here tonight.
