    There's no reason for him to lose? What the hell does that mean? Horn has two fists that say differently, all he has to do is land those two fists on Crawford's noggin enough times to hurt him and stop him. That is not entirely out of the question, since Crawford hasn't fought at 147, and it might not be a great idea to debut against an unbeaten, violent,, aggressive fighter, who went toe to toe with and outslugged, roughed up, and bloodied up Pacquiao. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Manny was shot to **** right? No, he wasn't Manny was coming off of schooling Jessie Vargas, who was coming off of violently KOing Sadam Ali, who just came off of beating down Miguel Cotto.

    Horn is far more versatile than he's given credit for, because most on here haven't seen him outside of the Pacquiao match. Watch him a little more before writing him off, he'll be the toughest test Crawford has had thus far in his career.

    You know who else had no reason to lose, Imam against Granados and Douglas against Khurtsidze and Douglas against O'Sullivan, well...... :D And I picked all three of them to upset the apple cart.:sisi1

    He can do whatever wants but when he proclaims his goal as being the best fighter in the world, he really doesn't back that statement up.

    We will see. On April 14th Horn will have the opportunity to change the narrative.

    This is a public forum, there's nothing in the ESB rules that says I can't protest.

    It's not a public forum, you agree to rules when you sign up numbnuts.

    That’s my point. Loma is seemingly too good for his own good at his weight. Rigo faced the same challenges securing meaningful bouts after dominating top guys or stiff foes that made bigger names avoid him. The more willing opponents are north in higher weight classes, unfortunately for Loma.

    He does what he can. No one can force boxers or promoters to step up. Loma just has to take what he can get at this point until his stock rises to a level that makes opponents less reluctant to face him because the monetary value is too enticing to pass up.

    Eh... he fights a lot of bums, and when he fights a great fighter its not a fair fight. That's not really in the vein of an ATG or one claiming to be the next coming of...

    Loma fighting Beltran is mostly Arum's fault. Loma does have a say though, so yeah, I hold him partially accountable. I'd rather see him fight Berchelt at 130, or rematch Russell Jr. at 130.

    Hholy **** you are thick! Oscar comes public and says he does not want the May 12 date due to the Cucknelo/GGG replay yet you still hold that that this is mostly Arums fault. in fact oscar also balked on the original April2 date FFS.

    Oscar does not want Linares to fight Lomachenko, he knows Lomachenko would out box Linares and does not want to lose his fighter.............Oscar is a crook!
