Could Van Heerden step in?

[TheCell8]

Probably a good time to retire...

[Boxing42]

if pac man is done then horn will face crawford but if pacquiao plans to return next year then horn will fight a no hoper

[Mammoth]

Lol how will the Hornet deal with a full time fighter in their prime, a real ref and real judges? He's screwed...

[GMAN SUPREME]

lol horn must be pissed. he's just lost a big payday against pac. now he'll fight a bum for chump change.

[Chuckguy]

The set up is for bud to fight the hornet and then fight manny early in 18.

No Horn rematch then I'd much rather see the Pacman retire. I would have liked to see him avenge his "loss" but if it's not a rematch with Horn I don't want to see it. Pacquiao is a legend and all time great, he's done it all in the sport and has nothing left to prove. At this stage, with his political obligations and age, a young lion like Crawford would only kick him out of the sport by force. I'd much rather see him retire before sustaining any unnecessary damage.

According to multiple reports in Australia, eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao has pulled out of a planned November rematch with WBO champion Jeff Horn. The fight was in the early planning stages, after Horn's win over Pacquiao in the "Battle of Brisbane" in July to take the WBO title. Pacquiao is understood to have scheduling conflicts with the November 12 date, meaning Horn will have to find a challenger to defend his title.

Only person I see Arum putting in there is Crawford, that belt stays with Top Rank one way or another.

In a perfect world Spence and Horn would use this opportunity to unify. Both a young, hungry lions, both are champions, both are available and have no dance partner lined up.

Unfortunately this is the pathetic world we live in, in which both Horn and Spence will be forced to fight some random bum.
