Horn was certainly awarded a home town decision (by two American judges and one Argentine judge). He was certainly dirty....forget about the head butts, he raked Pacman along his face with his glove laces numerous times, and used his elbow at least a couple times. I give credit to Horn for not folding up under the pressure of a stadium full of supporters, fighting against a true legend. He brought the fight to Manny and was in no way intimidated by him. But he didn't win the fight.
pacquiao was hitting him cleanly.. but with little effect (until the 9th). horn was mauling pacquiao with effect. tough fight to score.
Horn is a C - level fighter who will be knocked out when he faces elite level competition. Manny is finished, against a better fighter he'd have been knocked out
Oh here you are crying about a **** decision, yet you were comfortable with Ward robbing Kovalev in both fights. Well....damn Pacquaio. Horn made him his son.
I am now a hornet fan after beating Pacquiao I thank him for waking Pac the f up.Manny is in La Ka land thinking he is still capable of fighting at this level.NO U R SHOT! Jeff you're the man.
Have none of you scrubs ever watched Cinderella man or Rocky, Jesus we get Horn will lose to other fighters, he's C- level, whatever. Doesn't mean he didn't turn up and put on the fight of his life to win. Just pay the man his dues for smashing everyone's expectations and proving everyone wrong.
It was the biggest fight in Aust boxing history and Horn defeated a boxing legend . So yes it will be remembered in Aust forever. Can't see why that is problem ?
Horn is a friggin clown he did not win that fight what a joke. Yeah he did better than most expected but like Atlas said you don't get the W for putting up a good effort. How cringe worthy was his calling out of Mayweather LOLZ give me a break. Pac will win the rematch. The likes of Spence & Thurman would body this dweeb.
It was a close fight. Pac just happened to outland Horn 2 to 1 in this close fight, but there's all kinds of close fights and you don't score a fight with compubox. 175 of those punches might have been in the ninth round. No robbery.
The truth is coming out and its just as you surmised. https://www.b-scene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=751385
