      Floyd and Ward never left the U.S., and in fact Ward was the only Super 6 boxer to not leave his country. He also ducked the Froch rematch overseas to fight for peanuts. Floyd and Ward never took that drop in chances either, but I'm sure you think they can beat anyone anywhere.

        I'm an Aussie and I'll say it again, I really am starting to dislike Jeff Horn. He got a BS home decision and he comes out with s*** like this, pretty embarrassing. Mad respect for getting as far as he has come but he should be at least acknowledging the circumstances of the first fight and really be after that rematch with Manny. Which of course is in Manny's court too.

          Khan is an absolute d**k as a person but he can box. In fights where the opponent was not a big hitter he has a very good record, Algeiri wasn’t a robbery, that was close contest and he did enough and if you remember Khan came into that looking passed Chris trying to line up Mayweather so he boxed to get a KO which was ******. I actually don’t think Horn is even at that level. The PAC fight was a number of circumstances coming together. This was Horns absolute moment of glory and credit to him he took it. But we all know PAC’s head and heart weren’t prepared and the win itself was debatable.

          If Horn and Khan fight and Khan has had decent tune up, I have no doubt he wins that.

            Do you understand the difference between Hollywood and skid row? You're supposed to come from Australia into the big time. It doesn't work the other way around. Who ever heard of a boxer going to Australia to make a name?

              100% Agree, the reason he wants to fight in Australia is because he’s getting finance by a City for fights so the purse is much higher than commercial promoters can match (which is the oddest thing I ever heard but anyway).

              As you say, no one is going to want to come to Australia to fight him, Kostya Tszu understoood this and went on the road. Although, as I said before I reckon Khan would fight him in Australia, he’ll go anywhere for the right money especially if he thought he could boast about beating the man that beat Pac, because he never got that fight.

                Seeing as how Jeff Horn already beat Pacman into retirement and threatening Mayweather, I'd be suprised if Thurman wanted anything to do with the Hornet. Too dangerous. Horn beat the fighter of the decade and is up there with the names. Pac, Mayweather, Mcgregor, Horn. Jeff Horn will be THE GUY unless Crawford can fight a perfect fight.

                  not true. algeiri gave him huge trouble and should have won. khan surviving is not doing enough. peterson gave him huge trouble and won although somewhat controversially. julio diaz gave him huge trouble and a close fight. horn can punch better than those guys and is more aggressive than those guys. he definitely would get to khan.

                      the cirumstances were the same. hometown boxer getting away with any type of fouling he wants and the ref doing nothing about it because it benefited "the greater good". then the judges bailing him out if the fight is supposed to be a loss like ward and horn. doesnt matter where it happens. its wrong anywhere. the fact that ward gets away with it in front of more eyeballs and on the big state is even worse and shows just how far boxing will go to manufacture figthers
