    I used to think Horn was a goofball silver spoon until he beat OG Mundine.

    Will Grandpa Pac have a harder fight? vs troubled thug Broner.

    Is Broner damaged goods?? I know broner is naturally smaller . Obviously far more skilled than Horn surely?

    Horn tried mauling Pac
    Broner will try & outbox Pac should be an interesting clash of styles

    Broner is too stationary, starts slow and has a relatively low work rate. Horn was all over Manny the whole fight. Big difference.

    I wouldn't be mad for anyone rating Horn higher, but I personally don't rate fighters solely off of one achievement. Broner has more to his name.

    Edit: just read the OP, didn't know he had fought Mundine already.

    Horn is definitely better than Broner at welterweight.

    Jeff Horn's thing is he's massive. He's nothing special but he's big. Kind of like a pale Kell Brook. Actually Brook vs Horn would be a decent match up.

    Broner never has a B plan. If Pac is half his usual self, Broner will be stopped, which might open way to an actual intriguing match-up like Pac vs Spence/Garcia winner.

    Well I feel Horn would beat Broner pretty well.

    I don’t underrate horn, his only loss is to Bud and he didn’t back down that entire fight, definitely went out on his shield, he beat Pacquiao who is still racking up B level scalps. I think there’s just a lot of dislike because a) no one gave him a chance vs pacquiao and he barely scraped that win, so a lot of people called robbery because PAC is pretty well liked and b) hating on him slags Crawford’s resume down a bit. So it’s natural a lot of people don’t wanna talk the guy up, but he’s alright

    They hate him b/c Pac was robbed. Honestly, worse cards than Adelaide Byrd for Canelo GGG 1

    In a 'styles makes fights' way you might be right. If Horn resembles any other boxer it's Porter.

    No. Horn is a strong fighter. But, I think Broner does ok versus Pac as I believe Pac is now on Broners level.

    Broner's best win at 147 is edging a past it Malignaggi...
