    Maybe, but the leader right now is MexicanInsanity who is batting 79%. I'm averaging 75%, although I take far fewer swings than most, and you are averaging 68%.

    Hey, I had a terrible April, what can I say, however... had 10 or so robberies gone the way I correctly predicted I'd be in the Top 15.

    And if my aunt had a ***** she'd be my uncle. We all get robbed. That's just the nature of the sport.

    Pretty sure we will be seeing more of Horn wether he wins or loses this fight, beating an ATG top 10 fighter then possibility losing to a P4P top fighter will see him stay relevant a while yet and get at least 1 or2 more big fights

    You're right, it is the nature of the sport, and it also means I was right several times, when everyone else was wrong, but didn't get credit for it.

    I hope so - he is active and not a loudmouth like so many these days.
    You gotta wonder at "fans" that want him run out of the sport, some of the comments are freakin ludicrous.

    Probably because Teddy Atlas got spit all over his microphone shouting about "corruption" after turning in some ridiculous card and then told Horn he lost in the postfight interview.

    I had it 115-114 for Pacquiao, so i can't call it a robbery.

    Horn is a good fighter, but he is not on the level of Crawford, who i view as a truly great fighter.

    GKBOX DKSAB but I'm afraid he's right here. This is a calculated risk by Bob to go after the weakest belt holder at 147(Horn is also under his thumb too if I'm not mistaken?) Crawford will win handily unless he's truly packing Khan -esque china which I don't think is the case.

    The countdown to the end of Horns 15 minutes has begun. Back to Brizzy, son. Open a karate studio/bar in Surfers Paradise .

    Made it on his third try, shortly after missing weight at first. Nothing serious IMHO
