[alexguiness]

If Horn is the future of boxing then I am going to hold hope for Floyd's next "comeback"...

[WesternChamp]

i knew it!!!! i called it on the other thread! horn is more easier to promote IF he keeps winning. but since he has limted skills, this wont last long. LOL

[WesternChamp]

shiiet will be a trip if arum all along is setting crawford up for failure LOL.. everyone is thinking bud is arum's next top guy once the pacman retires but what they dont know is arum has been secretly building up jeff "the last great white hope" horn to be the next super star. horn has what it takes, he's white!

i wont be surprise if arum starts saying horn is the best fighter he has ever seen... its only a matter of time. once horn takes crawford out, get ready.

What he meant to say is, "It's GREAT to have someone like Horn at the WHITE, err I mean right moment, and I HOPE he will be well received by the fans."

Rohan Murdock has the best potential out of those 3 Aussie boxers. He’s a world champion in the making.

So boxing was crying for a white Andre Ward?

Why does Arum's statements on Horn sound so familiar?

Why the burden's on Chris Algieri to carry promotion for Manny Pacquiao fight

Social media erupted, with the usual vitriol being spewed toward Top Rank chairman Bob Arum and WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, shortly after news broke Wednesday that Pacquiao will fight Chris Algieri on Nov. 22 in Macau, China.

Despite his win over Ruslan Provodnikov on HBO on June 14, Algieri remains largely unknown to the masses. Hence, the outrage. And he's not a big puncher, so those who do know him aren't happy for that reason.

This clearly isn't a fight fans have been clamoring for or are desperate to see.

Algieri has a lot of attributes that could make him a pay-per-view attraction: He's a good-looking, highly educated, well-spoken guy who is willing to fight anyone. He has a Bachelor of Science in health care sciences and a master's in clinical nutrition from the New York Institute of Technology. He aspires to become a doctor.

Same Ol' Bob Arum! Might as well write the next article: Why the Burden's on Jeff Horn to Carry Promotion for Terence Crawford Fight.

The new Raging Bull cause he comes with his head first. :wt:

All he wants is a headstart so don't be so rough on him..

Wow, both Arum and Duco are completely deluded. Seriously, what are they both smoking? Because if i come across it, i can do a runner.
