Conan's in pretty good shape these days have you seen the Chelsea Handler skit ?

Shit almost forgot about this.

Trout seems game, do I smell an upset coming ?

I spoke too soon Trout just got dropped.

Judges are pathetic

Yeah if this goes to decision Trout's going to get robbed, it's Texas though they never give rational decisions when it comes to boxing.

He can't even win on one of the cards, pretty sure he can't on another as well. The fight is already over unless he gets a KO

118-109 fuck sake that's disgusting.

Trout's a classy guy most people would be pissed with that decision.

so typically fights air on tape delay for me because i live in California and don't use sattelite. A 7PM bout will not air until 10. So i don't find a stream and wait. I turn it on Showtime at the time they said this card was airing and...JIM ROME. For a fuckin hour. I figured..OK..maybe one fight card..maybe it's on after this..NOPE. Tommy Chong documentary. Fuckin a.

Im guessing they aired it live but never adjusted the titles so i missed it. Had to find out who won via news headline. I'll probably have to wait until 2 in the morning for them to actually show the fuckin fight. Probably on youtube by then.

Watched it.

I felt Canelo edged him by a round or two...however, i feel horrible for Trout knowing that he never really had a chance unless he laid out Canelo. The judges were in the bag.

I don't like open scoring. It really hurts the fight for me and i can't imagine how Trout felt hearing that one judges card that wouldnt give him the fight under any circumstance. It made the other cards seem reasonable but even they didnt accurately score the fight.

So how do we now all feel about Canelo vs. Mayweather ?? Personally If I was advising Canelo I'd tell him face Cotto in the fall and wait just that little bit longer so by the time the Floyd fight happens he'll be much older.

just watched the fight this afternoon, i scored it 114-113 canelo. some of those rounds were a nightmare to score though and i could easily have seen it going either way.

good fight though, i was impressed with both fighters.
