Is a Pacquaio vs Jeff Horn worse than a Mayweather vs Berto?

    Yeah Horn vs Vargas makes sense. Arum is out of ideas for Pacman, hes fought most of the money guys around 147 in Bradley and Cotto & any other money fight is too dangerous for Manny at this stage like Brook, Thurman, Porter, Spence and Crawford. He should of got Garcia when he had the chance.

    I do agree that horn is possible not ready or never gonna be ready for pac. If it's up to me it will Crawford or Garcia if he manage to beat thurman. But the old fart Arum doesn't give a hoot of what everybody thinks, he does things his way.

    I do believe it will be ppv in Australia, if it's ppv in America, it is also ok, the worse is nobody gonna buy it except the die hard filos lol.
    The optimism comes from that I'm in Australia and I might be going if it's happening in Sydney.
    And crap no, canelo's choice is beyond terrible ha2x

    I don't think Manny wants those fights except Garcia unless it's for big money and I don't blame him at this stage of his career, i honestly think his fighting just hoping Mayweather returns.

    You know what man, I wish manny was more like mayweather and take more charge of his own career instead of leaving it to arum roach and that manager dude. If I'm manny, there won't be Marquez 3 and 4 and Bradley 3 and this so called world tour. But he is a loyal guy with happy go lucky attitude.

    There is nothing Pacquiao can do to damage his legacy. He left an absolute crater of an impact on boxing. A massive seismic typhoon of a kick in the ass to the boxing world.

    Have you forgotten about Pacmania?

    There is things he can do, just take a look at Roy Jones, if Horn knocked him out that would be a disaster for his legacy, not that I think he has a chance of doing that.

    Roy Jones is considered the best fighter ever at 168 pounds. And the greatest fighter of a decade. So his legacy is pretty well held up.

    Possible but I slightly disagree. You must be thinking of undefeated berto. I think this current version of berto will have his hands full with horn.

    Mayweather-Berto was a bigger mismatch then Pacquaio-Horn but like most I'm not crazy about this match-up.

    2015 Mayweather is a much better fighter than a 2017 Pacquaio. 2015 Berto would probably beat Horn but it would be competitive.
