By Dan Ambrose: Little does anyone know that former WBA junior middleweight champion Austin Trout had to struggle in the last five rounds with a badly injured right ankle that he injured in the 7th round in his 12 round decision loss to WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez last Saturday night.

By sslg99: First of all, I would like to congratulate both Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1., 30 KO’s) and Austin Trout (26-1, 14 KO’s) for putting on a great fight last night at the Alamodome, in San Antonio, Texas. They both fought better than they ever had before and they both gave their opponent a lot of trouble. The fight could have gone either way. Personally I had it 114-113 for Austin Trout, But I would have completely understood a draw. I would even be fine with a 1-2 point lead for Alvarez. If the outcome of the fight was a draw I think both fighters would get more credit and there would be a larger clause for Alvarez – Trout 2, which is a fight I would love to see.
