Comments Thread For: Crawford Beats Down, Stops Horn in Nine For WBO Title

[Tomjas]

Let's put this in perspective. Crawford did great against Horn, but in terms of who damaged who more? I think Pac stung Horn more.

And both Crawford and Pac stopped Horn on the 9th round if both fights was in Vegas the ref would have called Pac winner by TKO on that round.

Crawford didn't turn Horn into Quasimodo. A past prime Pac did. But that said, Crawford is still peaking. He is a scary dog.

Stop being an idiot

Pac is years past his best, would be badly hurt by Crawford or Spence and Uncle Bob is cashing out

That’s why he ducked the rematch with Horn!

Father Time is undefeated and Brisbane proved it

I felt bad for Horn in the 8th, TC was landing punches from 6 O'clock to 12.

Why would Manny rematch that punk? What has he done to deserve it? Take a look at Mannys accomplishments. He doesn’t owe lil *****et ****

School teachers around the world thought they were tough guys all of a sudden. I put that down to Pacquiao and his loss. Boxing was in disrepute. Pacquiao owes Crawford and i have come to collect. Starting with you. I don’t want points or green K either 😜

Cong**** and let's enjoy Bud, he's on of those "once in a life time fighter", I really enjoyed this performance from a technical standpoint.

Bud is like a a boxing computer, dude is sharp minded and accurate that's crazy, all of his choice are goods.

Let’s put things in your perspective you mean😂😂. That’s probably your countryman and I ain’t mad at you. However, Pacquiao is past it. He was a fantastic gymnast and had a wonderful career. He was arguably 4/5 th best of his era which is an accomplishment in its self. As it stands now he is probably 6th best welterweight and there is only 7 fighters🤭 . He had wonderful fights again Juan Marquez but I only really remember the last fight but the victory doesn’t count because it was a lucky punch and Pacquiao was up on the cards

Even I, being Australian knew that Horn got a gift in Brisbane over Pacman, and was more concerned about the damage that was done in terms of attracting big name fights here.

But all the die-hard, one-eyed patriot's who litter every nation kept up their stubborn rhetoric, backing Horn no matter what, the press treating him as a Cinderella man.

Now he has been exposed as a journeyman at best, he got his pay-day, so he should be happy as he's educated and can always find a job as a teacher.

The best outcome from this fight for the losing side is to seriously re-think the way boxing is managed in this country, Horn's name was hardly mentioned in the press anyway, more as an afterthought, which is counter to what is happening around the world which could be called a spluttering revival.

If the Brits can fill 80,000 seat stadia and produce great talent, then we ought to be able to here.

But no, for too long boxing has been interfered with, banning kids from boxing (for their safety) and little to no money being invested in real talent.

The model here is pad a record with thai boxers, then fluke a shot with a U.S champ, get your socks beaten off and that's it.

Nicely articulated
