    He showed some serious heart against Pacquiao, no doubt. I like him too, he seems a pleasant guy and is also quite unassuming. All the same I don't think he has enough about him to beat Crawford. It's a intriguing fight though for sure

    Yes. Horn's most realistic chance to beat Crawford is something like this:
    1. Get the fight in Australia.
    2. Get a ref who likes him.
    3. Get judges who like him.
    4. Low blow, foul, rabbit punch, wrestle and maul Crawford until Crawford wonders whether he's signed up for the UFC by mistake.

    Disclaimer: I like Horn and was not unhappy with the PAC decision. But a prime Crawford is something else.

    Crawford stops horn mid to late rounds, People are putting way too much emphasis on horn being this huge guy. Manny is just a small welterweight, he was small compared to floyd and bud is even bigger than floyd, don't let the fact that crawford kills him self to make 140 mislead you.

    Don't forget crawford will also be 7lbs heavier than we have ever seen him in the ring at 147.

    If Horn could bring it down to his level then it's an open fight. However I think Crawford is good enough and unlike Pacquiao is also young and nimble enough to stay away from the rough housing and would win comfortably. An interesting fight though.

    Swap Australia with Oakland and you have the conditions for a standard Andre Ward win.

    Horn was too scared to fight Bradely Skeete. That fraud is on borrowed time. Hopefully Spence or Thurman get to him before Crawford does because they have the power to administer him a well deserved pasting.

    The whole "Weight Bullying" argument is asinine. If you can make the weight, you can make the weight.

    Crawford is prime dummy he's not past his prime like Pac was. If Pac would have fought Crawford instead of Horn you wouldn't have had all that robbery stuff because Pac wouldn't have won a round.

    If you want to call being dropped 3 times and getting stopped as taking someone to their limits then you can't be taken serious for real boxing debate. Being taken to your limits is what Pac did to Horn in their fight. Learn the difference troll.:deal:

    Exactly! He's one of the biggest hypocrites on this forum and that's saying something. I'm glad others are starting to see it as well. He's a horrible poster. Bashes Crawford for being weight bully yet praises Horn, who he admits is a weight bully. Says AJ and Wilder are on PEDS but neither have tested positive yet he's a fan of Lucas Browne who was busted for PEDS and he's a fan of Vitali who was busted for PEDS as well. This guy is too much.

    Another conspiracy theory you POS hater. No one can just be the better fighter it's all cover ups for PEDs paid off judges with agenda pushers like you, unless of course the guy you like wins, then everything was fair. What was Postol's excuse when he got a boxing lesson by the hands of Crawford? Let me guess? Crawford was on PEDS and the US covered up the results of a failed test right? LMFAO!!! Seek help you loon or better yet leave the country and move to the EE. You seem to prefer it over America anyway.
