    Stop listening to ESPN, Watch the fight again with the sound down

    Horn won by sheer aggression, toughness and overcame the champ

    Watch and see. Clear as day

    Horn looked young. Pac looked old. Horn was busier. Pac only fought in spurts and counterpunched the whole time. But Pac landed twice as many punches even if he did look like **** doing it. You don't get points for trying like Horn did.

    I've heard that the Holyfield vs Valuev fight played out like this, although I haven't ever seen it for myself.

    Being the busier fighter does not mean ****. Pac won that damn fight. Horn punches like a girl and cuts easy. Yes it is time for the Pacman to retire when he can't finish bums like Horn. Horn is a soft punching easy to cut bum. But he did expose the fact it is time for the Pacman to retire. But Pac won that fuc*king fight.

    You had way to many drinks if you thought Horn won that fight. Yes Pacquiao looked old but he still beat that soft punch easy to cut bum from your country.

    If being the busier fighter means you win then Manny beat Floyd.

    Let's be real. Pacquiao was flinging punches like an amateur and he had no adjustment for Horn's style. Once again you can't fault Horn for fighting his fight and you have to fault the guy that was SUPPOSE to KO the CAN/BUM.
    I don't know why you guys can't find fault in Manny but he looked awful for this level of competition.
    Maybe he was robbed, maybe it was a cherrypick gone wrong, maybe he should stick to the old guys. It was a good fight still. Manny still gets $10 mil and Horn has a tough road ahead against some real solid, prime welters.

    Pac threw about a hundred and fifty punches less, but doubled Horn's landed punches. He threw less, landed more. Horn landed at 15% to Manny's 33%. That's all you need to know.

    He looked like warm ****, but that's not the point. He doesn't have too look good. He just has to hit the other guy more than he gets hit. He did that.

    I'm drunk bro. I admit I have to watch the fight again but Manny looked trash and I never trust punchstats. Too much human error. Might as well have monkeys push buttons when they think a punch is landed.
