    Honestly I am no fan of Jeff Horn but to say hes an average boxer your just hating or you havent seen him box. Someone like Jeff Corcoran is even considered an above average boxer and Jeff Horn ko'd him. Manny was a top welterweight and Horn fought his@$$ off and beat him whether some liked the decision or not. Is he on Crawford or Spences level? most likely no but to say that hes average is laughable. Hed most likely beat guys like Alexander and Berto and would be evenly matched against peterson, garcia, jessie vargas ect. Hes obviously a top 10 welterweight

      The headline is misleading, making it sound like the trainer is scared or something. It is simply the fact that Horn apparently finds it difficult to make the weight. If that is the case then they should move up to 154, take the pay day and then fight one of the top guys there...problem is, I doubt Arum lets the TC/Horn fight go.

        Horn is an average white Aussie boxing who got a gift decision over the hated Paq and has milked that BS win for all it has. Horn is AVERAGE stuck in Australia and getting hype for no reason. Let Horn come to the USA and fight a name and end this scam.

          What does white have to do with anything? White Eastern European boxers have been dominating for awhile now so how do you like them apples? Saying average white boxer just leads me to believe your racist which would explain why you dont like him. I know its a hard pill to swallow that white boxers are taking over the sport but race shouldnt even be brought up unless your a racist

            bOXING FANS IN aMERICA crave white champions and great white fighters. Horn would fit that moniker if Horn is legit which I do not think Horn is any good at all. Let's see Horn come to America and fight a true contender and see how the Horn holds up. Horn is quite average. Hope I am wrong. Boxing needs a kid like Horn.

                Horn should listen....

                Crawford fight can wait if not happen at all. Business wise fight Mundine for more money and then Sadame Ali for his 154 title would be smartest move in Australia.

                  I see protection and only one answer why. Lionel Rose was Aussie and he had to travel regular. He won and lost his title in Los Angeles. Lionel was 10 times the boxer Horn is, but he was Aborigine. That's a white term.

                    Horn trainer thinking about huge payday rather than defending his title.
                    Well, Kell Brook made a similar mistake with Spence. Rather than moving up to Super welterweight , he defended his title and lost to Spence.
                    I believe the trainer has seen defeat in the air when Horn fights Crawford.

                      He should be pleading with Arum.
                      Bobfather is the one making these fights for Horn.
