By Dan Ambrose: WBA World junior middleweight champion Austin Trout (26-0, 14 KO’s) says he’s going to take WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (41-0-1, 30 KO’s) out of his element on April 20th and expose him in their fight at the Alamo Dome in San Antonio, Texas.
Trout is going to force Canelo to use his wheels in this fight, and make him move more than he ever has before. If you’ve looked at Canelo’s previous fights you’ll see that he’s a pure plodder and can’t move well at all around the ring.
Trout said to Fightnews.com “I don’t think he has his man strength yet. I will impose my will on him. I am going to take him out of his comfort level…I have the tools with my jab and foot work.”
