By Dan Ambrose: WBA World junior middleweight champion Austin Trout wants to fight Golden Boy’s star in the making WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, but he thinks there’s some doubt in the minds of Golden Boy whether they should let the young 22-year-old Alvarez face the 27-year-old defensive artist Trout.
After all, Canelo, who Trout refers to as Golden Boy’s “Golden Goose,” hasn’t laid the golden eggs for Golden Boy yet by fighting Floyd Mayweather Jr. or any of the other top fighters. Instead of laying golden eggs, Canelo has been beating a lot of smaller and older fighters.
Trout commented on his twitter “I personally don’t believe that Canelo is ducking me. I do believe that [Richard] Schaefer [the CEO of Golden Boy] and Golden Boy is though. Have faith in your boy, GB.”

By Dan Ambrose: In a sign that Golden Boy Promotions might be looking elsewhere for easier marks for their Golden One, WBA World junior middleweight Austin Trout (26-0, 14 KO’s) says he hasn’t even been contacted by the promoters of WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (41-0-1, 30 KO’s) for a fight on May 4th.

By Dan Ambrose: Golden Boy Promotions has done a good job of building up red-headed WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez by making the right fights for him at the right time in his career. In other words, Canelo hasn’t been put in with the best at 154, such as Erislandy Lara, Austin Trout, and Vanes Martirosyan. 
By Dan Ambrose: Despite WBA junior middleweight champion Austin Trout’s comments that a fight between him and WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez is close to being made for May 4th.

By Dan Ambrose: WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (41-0-1, 30 KO’s) is a decent champion and he’s done a great job of beating the welterweights that Golden Boy Promotions has lined him up with for him to win the World Boxing Council 154 pound title and hold onto it for an entire year, but if Golden Boy goes ahead and matches him up against WBA World junior middleweight champion Austin Trout (26-0, 14 KO’s) on May 4th, then I see Alvarez losing badly and getting exposed in the process. Alvarez is too flat-footed, slow and stamina-plagued to beat a fighter in Trout’s class.
