Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: Horn's Head and Elbows Were Issues, Not His Power

[Strategic1]

Inexperienced refs and judges with very little experience in championship fights...

Pac is getting poor advice from Koncz. They should have demanded that refs and judges had to have more experience.

The refs and judges were completely unknown.

tbh for a fighter of Manny's stature I'm surprised they didn't get a more renowned ref. When Floyd fights you know you're getting a recognized and well experienced ref. I don't know who reffed this fight.

Floyd says it himself, when he wins. I want to Thank Al Haymon, Leonard Ellerbe and the Money team.

His team helps his avoid opponents, gets the best deal for him, get his ref, judges his drug testing, TUE, everything he can to stack the deck in his favor.

He gets the sparring partners, the spies, Floyd and his team get the best they can, fixing everything in his favor.


When Pacquiao wins, he thanks God. You ever here Koncz or Arum get a mention. Pacquiao is too loyal and too nice.

Wrong.

Fake news.

Let me guess what comes next, Pacquiao had a "cold" and wasn't 100%.

U didn't see the fouls?

[Strategic1]

Rewatched there were fouls.. especially rounds 2, 6 and 7. Coincidentally when the headbutts happened.

Those elbows weren't soft. They were almost like jabs using his elbows.

Interesting that the same people who were saying that Ward was a dirty cheater have nothing to say about Horn after this fight. ...*shrugs* That's boxing fans for you...

[Squ□redCircle34]

Horn been watching lots of Andre Ward I noticed!

That boxing technique of throwing a jab or a hook then lead in with your elbow or head is a classic move used by yours truly the pound for pound best fouls of world..

Andre Ward!

Pac should retire man, Arum still taking over 60% still?

[HURTFEELINGS]

yeah i was at the fight and saw the fouls happening couldnt understand the ref not warning him at all it was blantant , but of course horn would say he won the rabid australian public were cheering even when the punches missed and to be honest the australian sporting way is to win at any cost no matter what, so of course they wouldnt care about his tactics , even now in brisbane theres no real talk of the controversy over the decision they dont report that sort of thing its all pro aussie.

usually its pac's fans who do this

[SCEN3RY]

It certainly happened. I've never seen a high profile fighter get fouled so much. But even with all his experience Pac just refuses to give one back??? At least tell the ref, however blind he may be. It wasn't even mentioned by the broadcasters? Strange **** over in Australia.

edit: the fouls are really the bigger controversy to me. I don't think the fight ends up being close without the fouls, you know what I mean? The first and foremost ILLEGAL stuff, rabbit punches and elbows and headlocks are the key issue that for some unknown reason are barely being talked about.
