Anyone here think Jeff Horn deserved the decision against Pacquiao?

    No Teddy Atlas.

    Second time scoring this fight, I think.

    Round 1 Horn
    This will set the precedent for the rest of the fight: Horn throwing a lot and Manny catching most of it on his gloves, but some gets through and Manny barely retaliating. Horn simply outworked Manny.
    Round 2 Pacquiao
    Round 3 Pacquiao
    Round 4 Horn
    Round 5 Pacquiao
    Another close round where Horn gets the better of the first 2 minutes, but then Manny comes back strong in the last.
    Round 6 Horn
    Round 7 Horn
    Horn stinging Manny with right hands. Another nasty cut on Manny's head.
    Round 8 Pacquiao
    Horn's legs seemed to go stiff before the end of the round. Manny caught him real good with a left.
    Round 9 Pacquiao
    :lol: The 9th round doesn't agree with Horn at all. Manny busted him up real good and Crawford and Zerafa TKO'd him.
    Round 10 Horn
    Round 11 Pacquiao
    Round 12 Horn

    Heh. Had it 6-6 :lol: 7-5 Either way is fine. No idea wtf Waleska Roldan was watching to score it 117-111 for Horn.
    But Ramon Cerdan and Chris Flores were on point with 115-113.

    A fantastic back and forth fight. Especially the last 4 rounds. Definitely not as dirty as people seem to make it out to have been.
    Horn pulled off some dirty basics that are taught in any gym. Meanwhile Manny just stood there as if he wasn't expecting this sort of a fight at all. He looked surprised and befuddled.

    Hometown cooking my ass. They could have easily stopped the fight due to Manny's cuts(to save Horn). And the ref actually wanted to stop the fight after the 9th, but gave Horn 1 more round.

    Those cuts were from Horn's headbutting. Pac was cut twice from headbutts. But you don't give a **** huh? Are you fkn serious saying he looked surprised and befuddled? How about how the eff is this dirty fighter not getting called or warned? Not a single warning from the ref for anything Horn did.

    I disagree, as do most of the people on that RBR. Sure I picked Sor Rungvisai for the upset, but all of the people who didn't, many of them scored it for him as well.
    https://www.boxingforum24.com/threa...onzález-vs-wisaksil-wangek-rbr.583585/page-48

    Yeah, that's great, but quality over quantity here, Roman would land some pitt pats, and Sor Rungvisai would land a massive bomb that would negate everything Roman threw. I'm not big on scoring fights on power alone, but when it's a fight with that many punches thrown and landed, by both men, the difference in power usually ends up being a deciding factor.

    I don't make the ****ing rules, neither do you, you can whine and ***** and moan all you want, but that doesn't change the reality that refs and sanctioning bodies make the rules and decisions, we're both pissants that give our opinions on Boxing message boards, i.e., Neither of us are the part of any problem. Therefore, I can't reward cheaters. Also, who made you an aficionado on what's intentional and unintentional? This is boxing, accidents happen, especially when someone is a roughhousing brawler and swarmer.

    You have exposed him once again as a bias fan boy. That is why he has no answer. So it is okay for Horn to fight dirty against Pac but when Hatton did it to one of his favourites it was unacceptable LOL

    That is the sorriest fkn excuse ever. You are part of the problem when you don't point out the BS. And I'm not just talking boxing, it's fundamental.

    I like Pac, even picked him against Mayweather and Thurman, not even remotely a hater, so step off me, you're being too emotional, and coming a little too close to violating the word filter, lighten the **** up and chill out. Horn wasn't some foul machine, you're overstating it and exaggerating it because it serves and fuels your narrative.

    Were those headbutts deliberate? There were plenty of times when they butted head while both men were throwing punches.
    Yes, the ref should have done a better job to try and stop the headbutts from happening.

    And the befuddled part was about the inside fighting. Whenever they got tied up in a clinch, Horn would work which every way he could, meanwhile Manny just stood still and looked confused when Horn punched him. It took Manny a while to get going on the inside.

    They're either driven by irrational hatred or obsessive fanboy butthurt. Not much in between.

    I was hoping the Mexican kid got away with that late body shot on Edwards and got to leave the UK as the new champ last Saturday.
