    Better win Horn over Manny or Joshua over Wlad

    Manny was still p4p top 10 and the WBO ww champion when Horn defeated him

    Wlad was a 41 year old coming off of a loss and a 2 year layoff


    So which win is greater?
    33
    Horn over Manny
    21.21%
    7
    Joshua over Wlad
    78.79%
    26

    Was Joshua's win controversial?

        Joshua ko'd him and had multiple KD's so you have to go with that win. Horn's was good, if you like that horrible fighting style. He never had Manny in any danger in the fight.

          When AJ beat Wlad, Wlad was old but still one of the 2 best HWT's in the world. AJ was also a top 3 HWT.

          When Horn beat Manny, he was behind Spence, Thurman and Brook and in the mix on the 2nd tier with Porter and Garcia even though he was the WBO belt holder. Horn was a nobody journeyman picked to get an easy win as part of Manny's "world tour".

          I think AJ's win is better IMO.

            Joshua because he clearly and decisively won, and Wlad did come to fight that night.

            Manny I don't think lost because he didn't get hit clean much and landed most of the clean punches, also even with that it didn't seem like he was any sort of on his game.

              Joshua, considering the Horn decision was BS homecooking.

                I don't think Horn actually did anything to win other than show dominant body language. AJ actually stopped his guy and not via any fluke.

                    I thought Pacquiao won, so i'd have to say Joshua.
