I think Manny won. I rewatched it and Horn did better than I originally thought. It was close. I think Manny should have got a two point round for round nine. He totally dominated Horn in that one. But I have to admit that Horn may not have been given credit for some if the punches he landed. Pacquiao didn't look sharp.
Teddy Atlas Was Was Worse Than Lampley

I always kind of suspected this was the case
It took a while for the commentators to realize Algieri was in the Provodnikov fight, but in their defense Algieri did almost get stopped in round 1 and was a complete unknown.Comment

Horn harassed pacquiao from beginning to end, appeared as someone who wanted it more, would unload everytime pac shells up, had pac hesitant and backing off most of the time. Horn was also consistent with his energy and approached all throughout the fight while pac was way inconsistent,I think Manny won. I rewatched it and Horn did better than I originally thought.

Horn imposed the pace that he wanted that's why he looked more commanding and in control out there, except for the parts of 8th and the whole 9th
Maybe its just an illusion he made, maybe there's also substance to it but one thing is for sure manny was struggling in there, that's why judges gave it to horn.
Pac got some good hits but never really able to control the tempo, to make it his fight, to control when the exchanges happen and when they don't. Well, pac is just old so i wont even gonna criticize him with his performance.Comment

It took a long time for the commentators to catch on to what was happening in the Tyson VS Buster Douglas fight also. Douglas was fighting great but the announcers almost completely ignored it until Tyson was almost spent.Last edited by Damn Wicked; 07-05-2017, 11:47 PM.Comment
