Manny Pacquiao vs. Jeff Horn, April 22nd in Australia

[Strategic1]

The guy is a verified sports writer from Australia. Why is it so hard to believe Pacquiao will fight Horn? Bob has said Horn is most likely his next fight. And no way he's fighting Horn in America. Nobody would buy that PPV . Mudine vs Green I and II is PPV in Australia. If they'll buy Mudine fights they damn sure gonna buy Pacquiao fights and fill the arena to see the legend. Probably the biggest fight held in Australia since Jack Johnson.

So He penciled him in...and Arum hasn't even talked to Pacquiao yet..? yea ok. It's been known for weeks that Arum will fly to the PI to talk to Pacquiao and give him options for his next fight and to see when he's available.

It's really impossible to imply this fight is even close to set. I deduce he'd only give this as ONE of a few options for Pacquiao...

Your thread title makes it seem like its final... This thread title along with the statements from this source Shouldn't be taken seriously.

Well we'll see.....

Well we'll see.....

Yep we will...but I do agree that recent statements from Arum indicate he's favoring putting Pac against a guy like Horn in some place outside the US. Arum is co-promoting with Horn's promoter... and Arum wants to keep things inhouse. So Horn is essentially with Top Rank.

So Arum is probably pushing for a guy like Horn... especially if he isn't willing to pay Manny 20million to fight Crawford.

This is how you know Pacquiao is donezo.

My P*ctard days are counted.

I'm a big Manny fan but cmon man this is horrible.

Who the **** is Jeff Horn?!?!?

[The Problem Child]

IT'S SAD how many fights Pac has wasted the last run on, when he could've used that gas left in the tank to beat PBC WWs and bigger names which would have given us amazing memorable fights. Everyone would get behind Pacquiao in a legendary tour run against all TOP WWs.

[Grimmer]

How so?
Crawford's his next star
He don't want him getting knocked out
And that's why it won't happen

Literally next to no chance Crawford gets knocked out.

If Pacman couldn't put away Algieri or Vargas, what makes you think he'll score his first KO in 8 years, over Crawford.

[Raonic]

I wouldn't rule it out but a better source is needed.

[Tomjas]

Dang, since Pac didnt want Crawford, Arum is making Pacman fighting in Australia and will either pay off the judges so Horn can win or ask Pac to take a dive for some money lol

Thats going to be funny, do Australians even know who Paquiao is? I heard Aussies hate Filipinos.

Why would Australians hate Filipinos?

Australians bought Mudine-Green I because it was relevant at the time and people wanted to see Mundine GTFKO

Their upcoming rematch is seen as nothing more than a circus act between 2 guys that should have retired years ago
