    Horn beat Pac worse than Floyd did! Horn is a beast, he should be the star of the ESPYS
    I fan of May, but if May used head butts and elbows, Pac would be bleeding too.

      I'm waiting for the punch line or "LOL" that usually follows sarcasm. Surely there's going to be one because I can't seeing this being a serious comment?

        Horn's face will still be a mess. ESPYs are only a week away.

          He thinks his comment is a dig at Floyd lol.... he doesn't realise he's saying Pac clearly lost to a school teacher, you can't beat Pac-turd logic.

            I think "clearly won" is overstating it. As the fight was happening I was seeing how judges could give Horn's rounds off of activity. Whats clearly effed up is that 9-3 Horn scorecard. I didn't even officially score the fight, but I was seeing close round after close round that I thought Manny was mostly picking up while seeing disputability in them.

            And I'm not seeing so much retirement talk by those two (Arum & Freddie) as I see them not dis*****g anything about this fight which seems kinda odd for them. Both were like "yea well we probably gotta fight Horn back in Australia" (where the ref never seemed to be looking out for Manny much or restraining Horn's tactics & the crowd likely had influence with judges) & being more accepting of a L then I've seen before in a close fight.

                Im talking about the aftermath, not the fight.

                  I guess I saw the fight more like Teddy Atlas, and maybe you saw it more like Timothy Bradley did. 117-111 is criminal negligence!

                    Well yea I'm in agreement with you on the 9-3 Horn scorecard being effed up, although again I think maybe "criminal negligence" is overstating things a lil much.

                    The problem with scoring fights is about & has always been about the flaws & subjectivity allowed in scoring fights more than anything else. Saying its up to the judges & their interpretation of the requirements to win rounds with no or at best few checks & balances is what needs to be corrected or we will talk about this every few weeks or months from now again & again til corrections to a flawed system are made.

                      No, confronting Stephen A Smith wouldn't do a bit of good. While, Teddy Atlas is world renown for his violent temper and mean streak; On the other hand, however Stephen A Smith is not.

                      He is only known for his mouth. He is just a commentator with an opinion that's all. The likely result is that it would probably end up in just another one of his typical shouting matches, because he DKSAB.
