    Yes. Beat a legend you become a legend. He is a legend, like Green when he beat Jones. I get the joke. He is a legend, like integrity in australian boxing scoring

    Horn's win over Pac trumps Green's win over Jones by FAR. Not even comparable. He will go down as an Australian boxing legend.

    Pimp how can you hate on horn? Dude was a no one that no one gave a shot and pulled off an upset even if you thought it was controversial you have to admit that it was a close fight.

    Cashed him out would be if he fed him to Bud to get slaughtered.

    Pac went life and death with an unheralded kid and didn't get the nod - how do you then hate on the kid in that situation?

    Two intentional head first butts leading to big cuts and not one deduction let alone a serious warning. Yea, I can see how that could **** some ooff.

    Orthodox and southpaw, both with quick feet and darting-in offensive styles, both trying to be the one coming forward (at least early on), I mean butts are kind of inevitable in that situation.

    Was Horn dirty? Of course. But that's part of the fight game. He did what he had to do to win on the judges scorecards. Did you want him to sitback like Canelo did against Floyd and try to box Manny, or bring it to Floyd like Maidana did?

    But those cuts happened one after another, one round then the next. Dirty... ok, pushing it... yea ok. But the level of Horn's spoiling was off the hook. This is boxing, not rugby ****.

    Then blame the ref not Horn. Horn did what he had to do to win. Hopkins did it, and Salido did it to Loma too. They did whatever it took to win. I love that about anyone. I love anyone who is desperate to win.
