    87 wins - 20 losses - 5 draws
    58 subs - 17 kos - 12 decisions

    Wins over Liddell, Yvel, Griffin, Lister, Loiseau, Sonnen x2, Prangley and McGee.

    He has mixed it up with the likes of Severn, F.Shamrock, Big Nog, Arona x2, Couture, Babalu, A.Silva, Lindland, Marquardt and Palhares.

    I hope he has made some decent money in his 100+ bouts. He earnt $25k against Nate, $35k against Sonnen, $50k against Prangley and $25k against Chuck.

    I'm suprised an org hasn't tied him to a contract or shown him more regularly. He'd be good comp for SF fighters. He is riding a 7-1 (7 subs) run.

    Horn is like the Glen Johnson of MMA.

    Discuss.

    Yeah Gumby's the man. He's fought elite competition all over the world and been in the sport since the early No Holds Barred days. In a recent interview, Horn was describing his first pro fight. It was in an empty warehouse on a wrestling mat with a crowd of about a dozen people and the only pay he received was lunch and a round-trip plane ticket. Now thats old school for you.

    Jeremy Horn is a fighter it seems has fought everybody across multiple weightclasses.

    chuck Liddell was the first guy to tko him in his first 80 fights!

    I am surprised that horn has so few decisions he has like a 90% stoppage rate and not a bad record at all considering who he has fought.

    Travis Fulton's record is not so impressive considering he is mostly a can crusher who has lost to every A or B level fighter he has faced with the exception of horn who he has two draws against.

    didnt Horn beat sonnen 3 times instead of 2 Achilles?

    here is a highlight video I like of Jeremy Horn

    Dont be silly. Horn is likable, old school etc but he is nothing more than a workout for the likes of a prime Chuck.

    How about Couture, Tito, Vitor, Babalu, Overeem...

    80 fights means nothing, most of them were against Mexican midgets, women, the disabled etc

    What's the source on him being a white supremacist?

    Well not really given that Horn is a natural middleweight and Chuck has wins over top light heavyweights like Randy, Tito, Babalu, Overeem, Belfort, Wand, Randleman, and Guy Mezger. I'm not to diss Horn like Polymath either, Horn is an impressive scalp for any ones trophy case.
