    horn loss is not legit and everyone knows it. i just think a pac vs crawford fight will do more good for crawford and arum than a pac vs loma fight.

    if you're saying since pac lost to horn so it wont do crawford any good, well just imagine loma beating pac at 140? loma will get no credit for it. this is why i said loma needs to fight mikey for his break out to be a star since they're closer in size. beating pac wont do him much good but losing to pac will ruin him bad.

      But Arum who knows boxing more than you could imagine know that the present pac is still too much for crawford that's why he will not yet make the fight until he's 100% sure that crawford can beat pac.

        You are right it isn’t a legit loss in my eyes either but that won’t stop a lot of people using it as an excuse not to give Crawford credit. It’s a good win but the horn defeat will take a little shine off it. Loma would get more credit for it as he’s the smaller guy.

        I do agree that Garcia is the best fight for him, the winner is guaranteed to be a huge star.

            Arum needs to just let this kids go and enjoy the rest of his life. I have a horrible feeling if he keeps going something bad will happen, maybe even a tragedy. The dominant PAC was elusive whilst fighting in the pocket, the old PAC is still there but getting hammered in the process

              I just wish Manny retired after the Bradley fight, it was a perfect send off for a fighter who already went a couple years too long. The demise of his skills started in 2010, the he got schooled by Floyd, at least against Bradley he was going out on top. Now he has lost to Jeff f***ing Horn, who who knows might be better than we think but at 39 at welterweight, it's a dangerous game to be playing.

                Anyone throwing out names like Loma or Crawford have no soul, Manny is shot, this is heart breaking, fighting at 39 and dropping fights to the likes of Jeff Horn, even though the decision was BS. This is sad, just retire Manny!

                  Manny looked like trash versus Horn, a far cry from the Pacquiao in the Vargas fight. I sincerely doubt he’s gotten any better since.

                    Lol that shouldn’t even be in the discussion. Dàmn Pacquiao has fell all the way off.
                    Why not? I'm sure Choco wouldn't mind being on the undercard of a Rungvisai headliner if he was healthy after that knockout. Why can't Manny? It's his fault for ducking the Battle of Brisbane II.

                      Pacquiao

                      Pacquiao should not trust Arum ever again after the Horn fight. Arum was part of the set up thats why pacquiao lost to horn in Australia.

                      Michael Koncz should not negotiate with Arum anymore. ARUM sold pacquiao out in Australia.

                      Use your head Manny and Michael. Arum sold you guys out coz yoyr contract with Top Rank is finished.

                      Go promote your fight on your own, never Trust Arum ever after he sold you guys out in Australia
