    Horn wants the Crawford fight. But Arum is only offering him $1 million for it at present. Horn's camp will use other offers like Mundine's as a way of levering Arum's price up for the Crawford fight.

    But they want more than $1million for the Crawford fight theirs an article I seen that says Horn wants millions to fight Crawford. That's what the article is titled quoting Lonergan so I assume you're right and they're just trying to get a bigger payday.

    He had a little dip in form but he lost a controversial MD to CW and former LHW champion Danny Green in his last fight. Green would knock Spence out in the first round.

    The threads about Crawford not Spence and Green would have a cardiac arrest trying to catch Spence and his LHW title fight was a joke and possibly fixed. One of the most boring fights in history and he retired (his 1st retirement) before facing his mando. The Mundine-Green 2 fight was a joke.

    It seems that Horn is urinating in his pants at the thought of having to fight Crawford.

    Yeah I know but I decided to change it to Spence instead because he's bigger than Crawford and would beat him. The Mundine/Spence comparison is much more suitable because at least Spence has a track record at welterweight, whereas Crawford only has one at 140 and 135. Again, Mundine is a CW. I'm tying to make it a little more fair.

    lol Green is a CW who can crack, he'd spark Spence out cold. I shudder to think what he'd do to the even smaller Crawford. It would be like watching Gassiev vs Ricky Burns. lol

    Only to you and only because it fits your tainted agenda.

    I bet you haven't even watched Horn-Corcoran yet. You know, the fight you were offering round by round updates on that you weren't even watching :D

    Doubt Green could catch them to be honest but if he did yeah he would KO them.

    Green was fast enough to catch ''Superman'' and knock him out.

    Crawford wrecks Horn, we know that. He's had issues making weight so he does have a legit reason to dump the belt and move up I guess but it'll look a ***** move. **** the Mundine fight though, that's trash

    There's no way, barring something fluky, Horn wins. He knows that. That's why he's not going to give the belt and his 0 up cheaply.

    The ceiling of what he can do is make it an ugly fight.

    There's no money in that fight , $1M is plenty. Horn requesting $5 is pricing himself out. He won't get more than $1.5 M.

    Postal was paid $675K against Crawford. Horn needs to sign the papers and get on with it or else relinquish the belt.
