I always liked Trout and he does deserve credit for being a willing dance partner to anyone in that division. Still though, an argument can be made that while its true he takes risks, he's also being fed to younger and stronger fighters. Not even necessarily more skilled than him either, just less battle worn, faster, stronger, and bigger.

Hard to understand this.

On one hand, he gets props for accepting the challenge. He always seems available for top tier fighters to knock around.

On the other hand, when I see him booked for these fights over and over I often wonder how that's possible. He never wins these fights, and the object is to win.

Man has 2 wins over both Charlos and a Canelo win stolen from him.
He is a legend and a HoFer.

He lost all fights because of his feather fist and movement. He should have best Canelp and big Charlo but moved to way to much. He lost this last Charlo fight clean because anytime he tried to really box and not move he got hit very hard. Had eyes that looked like they had golf balls under them.

Only KO'd by Hurd, not shame in that. Only was cleanly outboxed and outclassed by prime Lara.
Over or under a dozen I lost count and Lara is a runner not no killer yet, this Man found himself on the canvas a handful of times there
