    It takes two to tango, bro.

    If Manny rematches Horn in Brisbane, they're not coming to see Manny.

    If Manny rematches Horn anywhere else, they're coming to specifically see if Manny gets beat up by the Hornet like "they heard from their friend".


    Either way, Horn vs. Pacquiao OR Horn vs. Crawford is appropriate, because Horn is champion. The A-Side.
    While I agree with this. Sadly this is not always the case. Remember pacquiao vs cotto? Cotto had the title but was still delegated to b-side. Made to drop to 145 and it was pacquiao vs cotto not cotto vs pacquiao. Sometimes that's just how it is

      And Manny got tossed around like a bum for 7 rounds.



      Thus why he should have taken the damn rematch and actually show the hell up this time around instead of making excuses about colds and crap.

      Manny was FRESH OFF A TITLE WIN AND DOMINANT WINS AGAINST PRIME VARGAS AND BRADLEY. Stop with this "past prime" BS. The MF'er didn't show up and got manhandled by the Hornet, period point blank, then ducked a rematch he got called out for because he didn't want to get tossed around again. That's all.

      That was negotiation. Remember, Cotto gave up EVERYTHING to face Pacquiao: catchweight, percentage of the purse, and A-side billing, because Manny was the man to beat at that time and Cotto was promised bigger names if he won. Truth is that Cotto hadn't done anything to earn that fight, Clottey arguably beat him.

        Horn will try. He'll foul like the ****ens too. Neither will save him. Bud ices him within 10.

          You mean dealt with Horn's numerous fouls, and still won? Horn cheated his ass off, and still had to be saved by the judges. Fucking hell, even your gif shows clear fouls. Are you Australian, by any chance?

          He showed up, put that work on Horn, and nearly destroyed him in the 9th round.

          Stop acting like Pacquiao's the same fighter he was years ago. A prime Pac would've probably stopped Vargas, Bradley and Horn. You need to stop with that BS.

          He showed up and won, but those good-for-nothing judges robbed him. He told Horn to take a hike, mainly because Horn wanted to fight him in Australia.

            Is Crawford ever going to fight an elite dude that's his size?

              Horn vs. Crawford

              I like how they arranged the photos -- like they're best friends, arms over each other's shoulders.

                  horn was literally allowed to do anything he wanted vs pacquiao, what makes u think he can beat crawford with a fair ref & fair judges? despite using every dirty trick, he still needed the help of the judges to win the fight. horn isn't going to ko anyone, he is lucky if he wins a single round.

                    pacquiao might have been one of the greatest fighters ever but is also a sore looser who always has an excuse when he looses and never gives any credit to the fighters that beat him keep underestimating horn as pacquiao did that's why he lost
