jeff horn, the worst champion ever?

[danceswithfire]

that's the thing , he was never a legit champ

but champ on paper

has there been any champion who got the title in a worse possible way?

so far all the names mentioned were all legit champs at one point or more

[Redd Foxx]

In terms of style? Guerrero, maidana, ortiz, berto. In terms of accomplishments? Guerrero, maidana and ortiz and berto

I'd put any of them over Horn. They could actually box to some extent. Horn fights like he has down syndrome. He's just stiff and shoves his way forward with no technique.
Absolutely horrible to watch.

He also looks like he has down syndrome

Beating up Chris Arreola twice in a row makes you a legit champ?

No one ever said that but I'm not surprised you'd start making up ******, irrelevant things.
Not only was Horn one of the worst fluke champs ever, he is in contention for having the ******est fanbase in the sport.

RJJ was a terrible HW champ

hell , even brandon rios who is now viewed as a waking punching bag was a legit champ and was viewed by some as the second coming of jcc sr at 135 at one point , silly but true story.....



sonnyboy jaro who has like 17 losses still became a lineal champ by beating wonjongkam....he was a caveman but was a LEGIT champ

As inept as Rios was, he looks like prime James Toney in comparison to Horn.
Hell, even Chavez Jr looks complex in comparison.

more legit than horn thats for sure....remember the topic is about champions that have won titles in a worse possible way than horn did

no doubt...rios was running thru everyone at 135 , the hype started dying down after the richard abril debacle
