Zerafa's team have said on social media that Horn and his team are arrogant money hungry scum bags. I believe they will try and set the rematch for Brisbane where Horn can have the officials on his side.
Well contracts are contracts and they must be honored. There are no buddies or honor in this sport. It’s every man for themselves so zerafa should stop crying. Why not just beat Horn again for better leverage in the future? It’s not Horn’s concern whether or not his opponent is making money. He lost and wants revenge while Zerafa is still valuable. Horn is not the bas guy
With the fight likely being in Horn's home town of Brisbane my main concern is that Horn will be told all he has to do is survive to the final bell and he will get the decision.
Can't blame the Horndogg for pushing for a rematch if he wants to continue his career and be taken seriously. Don't know what Zef's team expected they signed the contract knowing full well there was a rematch clause in it. Not really sure what's going to be different about the result though. You are keeping the same team you blamed for helping/letting you cut corners. I don't think there is a tactical brain in that team. Obviously they are thinking they lost the first round, got dropped in the 2nd, stormed back to win the 3rd but got a bad cut for the effort. So after 3 they are 2 points in the hole at least with a bad cut. If they don't have such a bad start this time they won't get so tired overworking to get the ascendancy back. Only problem is Zef Lord beat him at every thing that night. Prevented him from getting inside and Horn couldn't bully him around like they are used to. Plus now he angry.
I just don't understand what they are complaining about, you sign a contract end of story.. Really given the Horn is well undersized I don't see how he is going to have any chance due to the fact defending with your face doesn't usually work against bigger stronger guys.. Even at 154 he will still be far smaller once everyone has bloated back up their their walk around weight so at either weight he will be at a large size disadvantage.. Not enough time really to address this unless they take some steroids and his team hasn't changed so I can't see a different approach.. Just see another ko loss coming tbh..
The fight will likely be in Brisbane it wouldn't surprise me if Horn was juicing for the rematch as history tells us he gets away with whatever he wants up there.
Horn must have the taste for $$$ and Zerafa is the only payday out there for him now as he's outboxed and stopped last 2 meaningful bouts, anyway an easy knockout victory for Zerafa is the only outcome I see
I watched the presser and still Horn and his team carried on like arrogant scumbags. Even Horn's bum ass brother who has a pro record of 0-2 both losses by KO was talking trash to Zerafa, he is the same guy who tried to start a fight with Freddie Roach. They even admitted to trying to pay Zerafa extra to get the fight at 154 these guys are dirty rats and the fact that the rematch is in Brisbane could be a problem as Horn will have all the officials on his side but I still believe that Zerafa will KO him again and rid us of this POS for good.
Bottom line is a deal is a deal... I fully expect the result not to change but a contract was signed end of story.. Not happy with the contract don't sign it.. Neither are going to far further at middle weight so Zerafa was just looking at a cash out tbh, beat Horn again and he might still get that shot..
Yep saw it yesterday, they are a ****n delusional bunch, still hanging off that so called pac win hahaha. Rushton has brainwashed horn to think he's better than he is, horn is already slurring, he gets stopped bad again here. If Mundine beats parr, we may see choc v horn 2, dual retirement fight.
They did not have to execute the rematch immediately, they chose to do so, and their arrogance will backfire. Rumours horn lost a million bucks on betting on himself in the first fight, may have something to do with executing an immediate rematch to cash in if true. An immediate rematch in a demolition job like that is almost unheard of.
More of the same from Team Horn. They have no shame. The fight is happening too soon there's no way Horns brain has recovered from that pummelling. All dislike towards Horn aside the ref should jump in sooner if this starts to become too one sided again.
