    There will be again tons of excuses from Horn's team after the TKO loss tomorrow.

    MZ too strong, too focused IMO. Horn is going to wrestle him early IMO and get away with it, MZ needs to make him pay for it.

    I'm tipping Zerafa will end Horn and the circus around him he's done and dusted sounded like a cuckold at the wiegh in

    This fight will end earlier than the first one. The Kangaroo style of Horn will not prevail.
    Zerafa via TKO under 6 rounds.

    Horndog seemed in a good place at the weigh-in to me. Very calm & relaxed but ready to do a job tonight in his hometown.

    Michael Zerafa looked like a guy with the weight of the world on his shoulders. A long way from home, expected to win & desperate to in order to secure the big money payday that should already be his.

    He's got a lot to lose. That brings a lot of pressure. There was very little on him last time b/c he wasn't expected to win.

    And don't forget the Dwight Ritchie situation. There's no accounting for how that will impact on Zerafa's performance.

    Horndog by kayo for mine.

    There was no excuses after Horn lost actually,instead of whinging about the loss the Horn team took the rematch straight away,after Horn beat Pacquio on the other hand we still keep hearing excuses and conspiracy theories why Pacquio lost from fan boys like you LOL

    Hmm. This just says the PPV starts at 7pm, but with no time zone given:
    foxtel.com.au/watch/main-event.html?utm_source=mewebsite&utm_medium=eventpage&utm_campaign=hornvzerafa2

    The venue has an event start time of 5pm - local time in Brisbane, presumably:
    https://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=HORNVZER19

    So for half the year Queensland is on AEST, but then for the other half they're one hour behind since they don't observe Daylight Savings? :lol: God that's confusing.

    Also, contrary to what has been reported elsewhere, the website for Sky Box Office doesn't have Zerafa vs. Horn II listed (nor anything, for that matter, saying to "check back in 2020") on its schedule:

    https://sports.skyboxoffice.com/events

    So it might just be available to view on PPV in Oz, and on DAZN in Canada (but in none of DAZN's other serviced regions) :confused:

    edit: not on the Canadian schedule for DAZN either. :BangHead:

    How can you say there were no excuses? That is all they did, blamed it on eating pizza and drinking soft drink, said it wasn't the real Jeff Horn, blamed it on the weight limit even asking for the rematch to be at 154, said Horn under estimated Zerafa. Same way they made excuses after the Crawford fight saying he didn't have the right boots and had blisters on his feet, the Top Rank gym was to hot, Crawfords team tampered with the scales, the fight was stopped to early, they would win a rematch in Brisbane.

    Fighters always come up with reasons they lost and things they can do better but the conversation was about Horn fans supposedly making up excuses after his loss to Zerefa, something you also tried insinuating in this and other threads.

    I think Horn made a huge error moving up to middleweight instead of junior-middle and another loss tonight could potentially end his career or at least set him back big time.
    These aren't excuses as Zerefa was clearly the better fighter on the night but the facts about his last fight are that Horn overlooked Zerefa by looking ahead to a big money title fight with Murata and he also ****ed up with his eating by being to cheap to hire a nutrionalist .
