    I watched the fight and to be honest it was no robbery

    Horn was outboxing Manny most of the fight, pushing him back, working his body and really dictating the fight. Manny had a huge chance to end him in the 9th but was loading up on single shots instead of working combos to finish his guy off. I have never seen Manny throw 1 punch at a time and just try to load up on single shots.Fight was close 117-111 was a strange card but alot of those rounds were swing rounds

    115-113 either way sounds about right to me. Definitely not the biggest robbery ever like most are claiming.

      Didn't score it, but it seemed very close. Could have gone both ways.

          It was like the first Kovalev ward fight to me. It was close but clear for the guy who ended up losing.

            Yeah, but i'm not surprised at all. I knew hearing Atlas and seeing his scorecard, it's simple psychology, people will follow and they will be convinced it was a robbery. I thought it was close and the scores were fair. But i'm not surprised people think it was a robbery, I saw the outrage coming. People are influenced easily.

              Horn was aggressive but he missed soooooooo freaking much. He was hitting straight air with so many shots. Manny was much more precise with his punches and landed the more telling blows

                  Tim bradley was exactly right when he said the fight is "a lot closer than you think" in like the 10th round.


                  I agree, horn was coming foward landing to the hands and body a lot

                    It was a robbery

                    But you make one really good point: I have never seen Pac load up lile that. His KOs came from lighting quick combos.

                    That was a tell tell of aging
