Excellent post by revelated

Agree with all of the above as a fan of The Hornet, let's be real and serious here.

We KNOW that Crawford will do what Manny failed to do. Crawford will not allow it to go to judges. Let's not pretend that Jeff "The Hornet" Horn's performance against Manny was anything other than Manny allowing himself to be bullied around the ring and not doing enough in round 9 to finish The Hornet. That's ALL that happened. Manny HAD to get the knockout, period point blank, just like Spence had to KO Brook.

The difference is, Manny is somehow suddenly incapable of knocking guys out - and as a result, judges score against him. That's MANNY's fault.

Crawford wouldn't even get to that point. You'd see the equivalent of round 9 but with an actual stoppage. That's what you're supposed to do. What Manny was supposed to do.

I respect your opinion as a fan of Jeff Horn. I agree with you man.

HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You all thought Pacman would knock out Horn by the 3rd or the 7th or whatever. You all thought he would destroy Horn, so when Horn took it into the 12th round you then cried robbery to try and save face.
You're now gonna make the same mistake with the Crawford/Horn fight, providing Horn gets past Corcoran. Man I'll laugh if Horn beats Crawford. Once again you're underestimating him.

We can give him a pass when it's Crawford. Unlike Manny, Crawford has absolutely no problem or hesitation in knocking out fighters.

Also helps Crawford is a straight up thug who has absolutely no problems beating up car shop workers either.

Even I know for sure Horn gets stopped by Crawford, which is why I want to see it, so we can all see what boxing should be, not what Manny thinks it should be in going light on a guy and then inviting them to breakfast the next morning.

Who cares about size...

Size is such a totally over rated advantage at the level of skill Crawford has. Hell...little Manny knocked this Neanderthal down. No one controls distance better than Bud (a fact that Spence will sadly find out). No one has a better overall attack than Bud. Once Bud figured out the timing of a lightning fast Gamboa, it was a literal beat down. (with the exception of one punch Crawford didn't see) Horn is not going to be strong enough to bully Crawford like he did Pacquiao. I foresee the fight getting stopped because of blood loss from cuts...if not an outright KO. Too much movement, too much boxing IQ, too many tools, too much speed...Horn would have to somehow poison Crawford before the start of the fight in order to win. And yes...I've watched many of Horn's other fights...he's been knocked down by much lesser opponents. My advise to Jeff....enjoy your time as champ while you got it...you ain't gonna have it if/when you fight Bud.

Please, please make this fight so I don't have to hear about Horn ever again.

They're gonna rob Crawford the same way they robbed Canelo.

They judges robbed Canelo of his pre arranged win. No wonder he's upset. Crawford is good enough to win without any backroom manipulations so please don't compare him to Canelo. That's an insult to Crawford.. If the ref allows Horn to fight rough he will give Crawford a hard time but I can't see him winning..
