FOX Deportes' broadcast will start at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT on Saturday with Trout's unanimous decision victory over Rigoburto Alvarez in February of last year for his current belt before Alvarez's partisan fans at the Arena Colseo in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Following the Trout-Alvarez broadcast, FOX will show Cotto's unanimous decision victory over Shane Mosley that occurred at Madison Square Garden in November of 2007 in defense of Cotto's WBA 147-pound crown. Starting at 11 p.m. ET/PT, TeleFutura "Sólo Boxeo Tecate" will show Cotto-Mosley. Lem Satterfield can be reached at lemuel.satterfield@gmail.com |
