Comments Thread For: Horn To Spence: Let's Fight, Let's Unify, There Will Be a Man Down!

[thack]

Horn must have a death wish .Nobody really wants to see Spence v Horn but it would at least put Horn out of the equation and leave Spence to clear up the division .

Manny won't retire until he's forced to via ko and and or back to back loses .He needs the big money.Manny fully focused and old still beats Horn.

Promoters typically use title belts to attract and entice certain fighters. Bob Arum is not about to relinquish the WBO title to Spence, especially without any future options.

In addition, it's next to impossible because Spence is an exclusive PBC Al Haymon fighter. So outside of being a mandatory challenger for either of the other's title, then this fights never gets made.

Is Horn under Top rank?

No but he pretty much signed to give Arum options to promote him on future fights if he beat Manny. Horn will never fight anyone else but a Top Rank fighter while he has the Top Rank belt. Crawford will end up fighting for the WBO belt and once he's the champion Arum will steer him away from any top WW not signed to Top Rank.

That's why he's talking crazy like this. Bob Arum practically owns the WBO welterweight version of the belt, and Jeff Horn is tied to Arum somehow. It's all media tough talk from Jeff Horn. He wants no part of Errol "The Truth". It's just to keep his name in the boxing media. The boxing media won't help when those body shots start landing........then there will be a Real "Man Down"!!Oh by way, Manny beat Horn. Boxing Politics.

Arum has a welterweight title to hand Terence Crawford whenever he wants it, no way he lets Errol take it first

What ever you might think about Jeff horn one has to admire and respect the courage of this guy. Errol Spence, Jr just so happens to be the most feared and avoided welterweight in the division. Even with the leverage of the IBF title, fighters are yet still are afraid of fighting him. That includes: Welterweights like Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter too.

Guys like Horn and Smith Jr know they don't belong up there... Time is ticking before they go back to anonymity and they'll take anything you throw at them... That's why Smith Jr Team targeted Stevenson and that's why Horn team is targeting Spence... Only a matter of cashing out before the hype goes away... Good for them though...

why wouldnt he?? you see, horn is not a big name yet so he has to take on these type of fights. he cant go and fight a bum and expect to be paid well. in order for him to get paid, he needs to fight a fighter with a name. guys that have already made a name for themselves is not in a hurry to face the top guys because they can fight bum and still get paid, this is not the case with horn.

Check who Australian belt-holders defended against in the past. Fenech fought good opposition. Others, like Mundine made money fighting utterly lame opposition at home in Oz. Not saying Horn will, but anybody can call somebody out. If he actually fights somebody like Spence or Thurman, for instance, I will salute him. But I suspect Horn can make good coin in Australia fighting bums, just as English fighters (like Flanagan, for instance) or German belt-holders have in the past (Braehmer, Abraham, Zeunge, etc.).

Unfortunately, that fight will never happen. That's Terence Crawford's belt whenever he decides to move up to the Welterweight division or when Manny retires.

the bold ^^

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

Jeff Horn is one badass mofo

Horn's tuttin' his toy trumpet but he knows he'll be blown away if he steps into the ring with Spence. Maybe this could be a quick title for Brook.
