I cant be the only person that watched that fight who felt it was very close and could have gone either way. I think many people were influenced by Teddy Atlas's horribly biased commentating.
No ****, only biased Pac fanboys thought it was, and for the record, I like Pac. I scored it 116-112 for Horn.
This. Horn also got away with too much blatant cheating. I lost count of all of the headbutts and elbows he kept throwing the whole fight. If PAC had a ref like Byrd it would've been a completely different fight. Horn tried all of those dirty tactics against Crawford, but Byrd wouldn't allow it.
This content is protected Pacquiao in the locker room after the Horn fight. 116-112 Pacquiao. You don't get points for mauling (wrestling) and fouling and headbutting your opponent.
Had Horn winning. Outworked Pac in most of the rounds. I still to this day don't understand what fight some people were watching that had Pac winning wide.
