Comments Thread For: Horn: People Keep Making Excuses For Pacquiao, But I Beat Him

[j.razor]

If he has to plead with people that he won, then he didn't !

Pleading or not Jeff won that fight.

[j.razor]

What's wrong with you people? Easily brainwashed by commentators? Jeff won! And I thought manny would of won easy!

Horn is still trying to justify his win? Damn, is he trying to convince the fans or himself?

How is it anything like Floyd Maidana when Horn threw half the punches if you say Maidana threw over a 1000, any fight where a guy throws a 1000 punches is fighting at a real fast past, the intensity and pace of the two fights were nothing alike.

no where did i say the punch output was alike I was simply stating one of several things Maidana did in the fight.

In my recollection of Maidanas output, I overestimated. the actual numbers were 221/858-Maidana vs 230/426-Floyd. almost 1300 punches thrown between the 2 in that fight
In PacHorn Pac-182/573 vs Horn-92/625. 1200 punches thrown between the two in their fight.

If we're gonna correlate the punch stats to the pace of the fight then your idea that the pace of both fights were "nothing alike" is absurd. We dont even need the numbers to know that though if you watched both fights the pace was almost identical.

My whole point was, given the similarites in both fights i find it funny that some can justify a win for horn against pac when he clearly lost. but deny a win for maidana when he also clearly lost but by a lesser margin.

Like it or not. Horn is now the A-side againts any WW besides May-Pac. Lol this guy is ranked #1 in boxrec. Crazy. Tip your hat to Arum.

Hahaha!! I love a good underdog coming out on top but this kid is delusional if he really thinks he won that fight. When did they start scoring for clinches, headbutts and pushing your opponents head down? Oh yeah, I forget. It's not Horn's fault. It's the judges fault LOL!! Bull. He should be honest about the fight or at the very least say it was closer than the judges scored it and he would have won over a lot of boxing fans. Outright saying he clearly won and insisting upon that point alienates him from the rest of the boxing world. Then again why would he care since he's got an entire nation behind him that even has the government supporting him? LOL! It's clear Horn and his team are creating a 'them vs us' narrative to secure their home support. This just gets funnier by the day.

PAC should walk away from this sham the same way he should've walked away from wastes of time like Tim Bradley.
PAC shouldve been fighting big money fights at the latter stage of his career with guys like Broner, Matthysse, Danny Garcia, etc...
Arum is turning him into a sideshow, and he's been nowhere near washed up.
Oh well, PAC did this to himself by surrounding himself w ******ed religious advisers, Michael Konz, & arum.
He should've signed w Al Haymon and rode off into the sunset.

You don't know sht about boxing

The fact you just said for manny to win he had to knock him or shows what an idiot you are

Log off fool

You also need to learn what ring generalship is and it's not throwing elbows and head buts

At the end of the day clean and effective punching matters first, horn didn't even land 100 total punches in that fight fml

Lol at wbo judges being independent After the disaster of a decision.

Edit

Just noticed you are a Floyd fan, explains your ****** post

Have a good day fool

Ring generalship = you bully your opponent around the ring and control its pace. Which is what Jeff Horn did.

I get it. You're a Manny fan. You've followed his career for years; you love him even despite his hookers and blow.

Doesn't negate the fact that he got bullied around the ring and handed detention by a school teacher.

Done.
