    Horn fought like a wrestler trying to brawl with Pacquiao all night. He has no skill.

    Horn was a bad matchup for Pac and was always going to be an ugly fight. Pac, in a rematch scenario, would merely need to stand back and time Horn's leaps and bounds, whilst avoiding the hurtling noggin.

    Horn won the crowd over. Pac won the fight.

    Any Pac question is not going to have any objective views. However, in this fight, Pac edged it, particularly with a few dominant rounds toward the end.

    I love Pacquaio but he was brutal that night, won 5 rounds, 6 rounds tops. No robbery but a close fight

    It stands to reason that headbutts and the dirty tactics are part of Team Horns training. His scumbag brother also leads with the head, makes use the same headlock/punches combination etc. You're naive if you truly believe that Horns dirty tactics in that fight were accidental. Even then.... The sheer amount of disregard for the rules even if unintentional warranted intervention from the ref. Horns foul ridden performance would have made Ward or Hopkins blush.

    At the time it looked a clear win for horn. He just had his way, bullied Pac all over the ring and I think you could argue him 9-0 going into the 10th.

    Ive never watched it since, so my opinion might change upon rewatching it with the intent of scoring.

    Horn definitwly bullied the **** out of him. But Pac is a sneaky counterpuncher and he scored a lot.
    But effective agression was all Horn.

    I rewatched the Pac vs Horn fight recently because i taped Manny for the Thurman fight as i needed a better overview because i was considering a bet on Thurman. So my scorecard is actually pretty fresh and accurate considering the fact i was able to stop the replay while watching it.

    AND i am not really a fan of Horn...so i am not even biased.

    Round 1: 10-9 Horn
    Round 2: 10-9 Horn
    Round 3: 10-9 Pacquiao
    Round 4: 10-9 Horn
    Round 5: 10-9 Pacquiao
    Round 6: 10-9 Horn
    Round 7: 10-9 Horn
    Round 8: 10-9 Pacquiao
    Round 9: 10-9 Pacquiao
    Round 10: 10-9 Horn
    Round 11: 10-9 Pacquiao
    Round 12: 10-9 Horn

    115-113 Horn
