    The rematch (of "The Battle of Bendigo" in August), billed as "The Reckoning", is airing on Main Event PPV in Australia from 7pm local time in Brisbane (ninety minutes after the first bell of the undercard), with Horn and Zerafa ring walks estimated for 9:15pm (or 6:15am EST/11:15am UK). Sky Box Office in the UK and DAZN in Canada will also carry the card.

    Only eight respondents of thirty-six (~22%) picked Zerafa in the poll for the Battle of Bendigo, and only four (11%) picked him to stop Horn. Zerafa led by 3-7 points on all three judges' cards heading into the ninth round before stopping Horn despite being a +350 underdog.

    Heart says Horn, head says Zerafa. But my heart has been a deceitful ***** lately, but thankfully for my heart, I'm a sadomasochist and like being abused. So...... Horn UD.

    I have Zerafa by beat down again. Horn has no business going MW he's too small it was career suicide. He may have been able to make noise at JMW with out killing himself to make Welter.

    Hard to see it being much different, though without the early knockdown and bad cut maybe Horn and Rushton could have implemented whatever game plan they thought was going to work.

    Jeff might shimmy and jerk around enough to snatch a few rounds and go a bit later this time but I think he gets stopped again in the 11th.

    Zerafa by tko, towel comes in this time, not from rushton but horns wife. Best case for horn is he goes the distance and loses unanimus, busted up badly like every fight.

    Same result but quicker the horn lap jockeys will cry again he simply is not on Zerafas level and that Ruston obviously is delusional if he he thinks he can change a fighters style in that short period of time

    Horn's mind is shot vs Zerafa. I don't actually think he wants the rematch; but did it because he was told to. Word is he's overtraining. I smell nerves and self-doubt. I think Horn comes out hard and if Zerafa survives an early onslaught then he'll get the W via late ko or decision.

    I think that Zerafa beats the crap out of him again but seeing that the fight is in Brisbane look for Horn to have all the advantages in regards to the officials and breaking the rules. Is it a 12 round fight? Last time I believe it was only scheduled for 10 rounds.

    Interesting aren't all regional belts 12 rounds? With the amount of money Ruston has I think all the officials will be against Zerafa as we saw with Manny

    Horndog barks on Wednesday night.

    He'll be off the leash & tearing it up.

    TEARING IT UP FOR REAL!

    Since the fight is in Horn's backyard, expect the referee to help in punching Zerafa:ibutt

    10-rounder mate. That's why I've gone Zerafa on points. I think Horn will improve on last time's performance just enough to lose a UD (97-93ish) rather than get stopped again.
