    Comments Thread For: Horn's Promoter To McGregor: Tell Us How Much Money You Want

    Jeff Horn is peaking with confidence since the WBO welterweight belt wrapped around his waist, so much so that he aims to get UFC champion Conor McGregor in the ring and gives him ''no chance'' whatsoever of defeating him under boxing rules. After getting a feel of McGregor's technique when he made the transition from the octagon against five division champion Floyd Mayweather back in August, Horn saw the fitness and fatigue kick in as the Irishman was forced to stand his ground for nine rounds in comparison to a maximum of five in the octagon.

    Floyd fought McGregor and everybody was fine with it, so why Not?

      Trying to milk this mediocre Australian for all he's worth before he gets exposed for the low level fighter he really is.

        Damn, using McGregors name to promote a Corcoran fight. Pretty desperate

            Box a kangaroo. Might as well, since it's a money scheme sideshow. He is willing to pay Mac anything he wants, but lowballs any real threat. Nice.

              The funny thing is that McGregor is actually more skilled than Horn - he just has no cardio - but in the early rounds McGregor would dominate and outbox Horn. Pacquiao won about 9 rounds against Horn - not a shocker that Pacquiao gets robbed by fighters whom Arum promotes or has options on - Arum promoted Bradley and now co-promotes Horn as part of the Pacquiao fight deal.

              Marquez whom Arum had no options on lost two close decisions to Pac. Pretty interesting.

                  Exactly.

                  ''It would be the easiest fight of my career,’’ Horn told The Courier Mail. "If it’s under boxing rules McGregor has no chance.

                  "I watched McGregor’s fight with Floyd Mayweather and Floyd wore him down and stopped him even though Floyd hadn’t fought for a couple of years.

                  "I would bring a lot more pressure on McGregor right from the opening bell and I hit a lot harder than Floyd too. If the fight can be made I’d love it. To bring McGregor to Australia like we did with Manny Pacquiao would be a terrific event. He’s a big name and I think the crowd here would love to see me beat him."
                  Jeff "The Hornet" Horn speaking truth here and kudos for him for calling out a dangerous fight with no qualms about money. McGregor has no excuses - Australia has no problems paying money to people to see their guy treat everyone like Manny got treated.

                  Hell, even if it was under MMA rules I'm just not sure McGregor gets out there on his feet. The Hornet's wrestling game is top notch.

                    The kangaroo is like Wilder. Strong, unorthodox, liable to win by KO, but won't get a fight because he doesnt being a big fan base. Horn fans be like, kangaroo ain't fought nobody.
