Horn is an idiot

[Vlad_]

All this proves is that Horn and his team are pvussies who are already set on the rematch happening in Australia.

ESPN better think long and hard before replacing Teddy Atlas! Are they going to let Crawford decide who the analysts are? How about Lomachenko too? You can't let Horn dictate how they run their business. By the way, for those who don't know:

"Judge Waleska Roldan had it 117-111, and judges Chris Flores and Ramon Cerdan both had it 115-113 for Horn. ESPN.com scored the fight 117-111 for Pacquiao, and ESPN ringside analyst Teddy Atlas had it 116-111 for Pacquiao."

what's wrong with that? hes the A side now. if he tells manny to crawl to him and apologize he better do it. A side moves. pacquiao is now reduced to a nobody he has no belts and lost to a damn bum.

Within seconds of the first round he talked about how dry Horn is compared to Manny who was warm and glistening, the agenda was apparent immediately!

That was a professional and accurate observation by a trainer.

Oh, ESPN scored the fight for Pac?! They need to be banned too. Have it on a different channel.

But it's not just casuals.

Off the top of my head -- Joel Diaz, Juan Manuel Marquez, Erik Morales, Andre Berto, Robert Garcia, Abner Mares, Billy Joe Saunders, Claressa Shields, Errol Spence, Sergio Mora, Ray Beltran, Devon Alexander, Chris Eubank Jr, Lennox Lewis, Lou DiBella, Gabe Rosado, Cornelius Bundrage, Guillermo Rigondeaux.

All scored the fight for Pacquiao.

Do you think these people, who are in the sport, were swayed by Teddy Atlas' commentary?

Of course not. Knowledgeable boxing people know that Pacquiao won that fight.

But because Teddy Atlas dared to speak the truth about corruption now they are trying to blackball him.

(Using freedom voice)!Why is Horn discriminating against teddy? He should be mad at Stephen A. more than atlas. Horn is a self hater.

In all seriousness my only problem with Teddy was his scorecard (too wide for Manny but correct) and his refusal to discuss manny's TR contract situation as a reason for the corruption he talked about.

Otherwise he did as I expected. TR has an espn deal so teddy was doing what espn makes all it's on air talent do-tow the company line.

I know as fans we were used to old school objective teddy but it's a different game now.

As much as Teddy complained, his card had three glaring mistakes. Horn won the 6th and 12th and there is no way the 9th should have been a 10-8 round. His card should have been a draw.

To me the 9th round is a classic 10-8 round. PAC had Horn stumbling around the ring badly hurt. Horn almost fell down staggering backwards at one point. That round was a big departure from all the preceding rounds. My beef with Atlas is he didn't acknowledge the legal punches that Horn landed and any good work he did. I personally thought Manny won. If they fight again and the referee is on top of the illegal tactics Manny will win the rematch clearly. Horn should stay away from Errol Spence. He'll get slaughtered. Errol is a big strong welterweight that can punch. Jeff won't be able to rough him up like he did Manny.

Say what you want to say about the decision but there were at least three different occasions during the broadcast of the fight that Teddy Atlas was attempting to talk up Pacquiao's dominance when slow motion replays were being shown that directly contradicted what Atlas was saying.
