Comments Thread For: Jeff Horn Shocks Manny Pacquiao in Blood-Filled Upset!

There was no PED testing for this fight. Why aren't you saying more about that?

Mayweather = Never tested with VADA and uses IVs

Pacquiao = tested 4 times with VADA and has never used a TUE

Why have you never said anything about that?

Where's roach at, did he bet the power of speech on a manny stoppage.

I just finished watching it, decentish fight. as soon as i heard 117-111 i thought ok maybe a tiny bit too wide for pac but fair enough.
im baffled to say the least, bizarre. Not sure what was more weird the rigged scorecards or timmy thinking the fight was in Argentina

Do you think pac is a defeated fighter for the rematch already and will take a dive if it happens?

I don't know man; Only time will reveal. All he I know is that he threw a lot of punches and caught a lot of punches last night which is not a good sign for an aging fighter. It's fights like these that ruins fighters careers. I hope it doesn't ruin Pac but I do have my concerns.

This fight was a helluva lot tougher than it should should have been. Coming in I thought it would be a cake walk in the Park; As many fans were expecting knockout for Manny but boy was I wrong. This guy came to fight from the early round, opening bell and was damn near relentless in his assault on Manny. He just kept on coming letting his hands go.

I still had him losing the fight though. Let's not lose sight of that but it was a lot tougher than I had expected. Obviously, Manny is wearing down with time. He turns 39 in December and looks ever bit that age. Seven years ago he would have mopped the damn floor up with this kid.

You do realize that VADA and USADA both use independent WADA labs for testing, right?


By the way, with regards to your sig:

Mayweather couldn't have been manipulating hematocrit levels since he took a URINE test on May 1st, not a blood test.

Mayweather couldn't have diluted his urine being that the urine specific gravity was checked by the DCO and the independent WADA lab, and even when an IV is given, the sample is not allowed to be diluted. By the way, the samples given to the labs do not have the athletes' names on them.

Oh, also, he gave a partial sample from before the IV, and one immediately following. So no way it was used to inject something to be cleared quickly.

Oh, and Mayweather never refused PED testing, but Pac did. Hmm.


But this is all old news. Carry on.

Paq got screwed as average Horn isn't a top 10 welterweight

Paq got his nice pay day and was robbed in Australia the land of nothing. Horn is a slow average boxer who lost the fight convincingly to Manny. Now Manny gets the rematch and can avoid a tougher fight with Spence or Crawford or Thurman or Porter or Brook all who beat Manny. Manny will get a bigger check in the rematch. But robbery still as Horn is average. WBO belt is a crap belt anyway.

And the new.......!!!

[Floyd is TBE]

Anyone else find it strange how Arum and Pac vehemently protested the Mayweather decision, even though the judges obviously scored the fight correctly? Even went so far as to fake a shoulder injury and hold a press conference about Hausers IV story. But somehow they're just taking this lost extremely well? Manny didn't even seem to care at all that he lost this fight. Does this seem right?

He's old but I think it had do more with his opponent and his strange style not to mention he looked like a damn middleweight. He looked like he was on the juice. He made it an ugly style fight and used some dirty tactics

You are right. The man came to fight. He displayed a tremendous amount of will, grit and determination; The likes of which Pac hasn't seen in many years. One thing about Pac he has always been good with making adjustments. I just didn't see him make any of them last night.

I saw a man punching himself out after the ninth round and literally throw Jeff Horn a lifeline in order for him to cross the finish line. In my opinion, Pac made the fight a lot closer than it should have been and I believe that it has more to due with time than his opponent style; Given all his ring and championship experience.

Remember that Father time has a way of catching up with us all. Eight years ago, Manny Pacquiao would have mopped up the floor with a guy with limited ability and boxing skills like Jeff Horn.

Atlas to Horn: Great effort, but "I thought you lost"
