Crawford believes Pacquiao-Horn was NOT a robbery

[hugh grant]

Let's stack up them L's ....

Basic AF Ugas
*HORN (CPGW)
May (of course)
JMM 4 (almost caught a murder charge)
*Timmeh 1 ( )
Erik 2
Singsurat via KO
Torrecampo via KO

* = Clear as day robberies

Pac campaigned in his 7th weight class for 10 years beating all comers. Once bud beats more 168 fighters for next 5 years years at the very least, than bud will be close to pac. But until then, not close

Bud and Pac both had soft roads to travel
Pac had an entire country behind him, increasing the hype
Bud would have only 1 L if he had Pac's resuMay

Bud wont.lose as he has 10 month training camps for opponents with his once a year fights. I think we all know bud is the take it easy fighter, he learnt off of floyd.

When I see people saying fights like this weren't a robbery I just have to shake my head

Horn was dirty and fouling all night and Pacquiao still bashed his brains in

[SouthpawRight]

I've always thought Horn won that fight. Too many people were busy listening to Teddy Atlas going crazy at the verdict. Even Tim Bradley seemed to think that a win for Horn wasn't farfetched.

Only watched the fight once, live, but I didn't think it was a robbery either.

As I remember it, Horn's physicality made the fight ugly but it also seemed to throw Manny off his rhythm. I don't think he was expecting such a gruelling fight. I saw a clip recently of round eight or nine, when Manny hurt Horn, and Manny looked ragged and dog-tired, uncharacteristically so. By the end it had swung closer but I remember being unsurprised at it going Horn's way.

Worth noting that I wasn't watching ESPN broadcast with Teddy Atlas. It wasn't until a day later that I realised there was even supposed to be any controversy.

a draw would have been fair too

Horn confirmed that manny was well past prime

the come forward pressure style with limited defense is one manny used to eat for lunch
