Canelo Alvarez is undefeated through 42 job fights, but his detractors explain that he hasn't defeated everyone particularly notable. That feeling will change if the 22-year-old could beat WBA light middleweight champion Austin Trout on Saturday at the Alamodome in San Antonio. Trout (26-0) is coming off a victory against Miguel Cotto in Decembera'the same Miguel Cotto who stood toe to toe with Floyd Mayweather Jr. In-may 2012. He's 27 years old now, but the southpaw seems just like he actually has. His style is not predicated on planting anybody on the material (he's obtained 14 KOs in his career), but that does not mean he is not dangerous, as he demonstrated against Cotto. He simply out-boxed Cotto, making the traditional Mexican look slow, and it opened the eyes of the boxing world. Still, this really is Canelo Alvarez we're referring to. There's a reason why he is being tabbed since the future of boxing. Alvarez (41-0-1) has notched 30 knockouts in his profession, exemplifying his undeniable power. He's won a in four of his last five fights. Austin Trout pulled off a against Miguel Cotto, but he'll not need the exact same success against Canelo Alvarez.Elsa/Getty Images And Alvarez's power could be the biggest factor in the struggle. If Trout can hang around before scorecards, there is a constant know very well what can happen. If Alvarez starts linking, it may be over quickly. Trout's style of boxing, combined with the fact that he is a lefty, might make things a bit more burdensome for Canelo. That's among the explanations why some are calling for what would be described as a amazing upset. But Alvarez showed against Shane Mosley in May 2012 that he can't only overcome opponents, but outbox them as well. Everything about his game with Mosley screamed that he would simply go right at the veteran, but Alvarez exhibited a wrinkle in his sport when he boxed on his feet. Even if Trout prevents Alvarez's start on Saturday, Alvarez still gets the skills to outbox the 27-year-old. Austin Trout is really a worthy opponent for Alvarez, but he only doesn't have the entire gamea'or powera'to stand up to a fighter who is taking the boxing world by surprise. In the end, Canelo Alvarez should go to win en path to hopefully facing Mayweather.
