    But Manny isn't Choco or Kov

    Mannys A side even though he lost the first fight. He can walk out first , second doesn't change the fact people will go to and watch tht fight because of Manny. Jeff Horn is still B-side

    If Mannys team were worth a sh.it they'd be the ones dictting terms
    Is Horn entitled to more then the first fight for sure but he isn't the A-side



    Look at Oscar / Mosley 2

    Oscar lost but still had top billing for the rematch becuse Oscars the draw
    Oscar retained top billing because he was unified champion at the time. Manny isn't and wasn't.


    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.

      He's not looking for an easy win, he's looking for a belt, and Jeff Horn just so happens to have the one he's the mandatory for. Besides, Horn doesn't even deserve the title. If those sus ass judges didn't rob Pacman, Crawford wouldn't be fighting Horn. Thurman and Spence are fighting Vargas and Peterson, so it's not like Crawford would get a match against either of them. Garcia's putting in work on the cherry orchard, and Porter's trying to fight Thurman asap.

      What leverage does Crawford have, to make top-level welterweights wanna fight him? He doesn't have a belt yet, nor is he a massive draw. He's a high-risk, low-reward opponent until he gets a belt. If he beats Horn, the WBO belt will put him on the radar at 147.

        Sure Buds

        Horn/Corocan did 7k in attendance and that's after he "beat " Manny, He isn't a commodity. PAC while faded to sh.it is still a top 3 recognizable name in the sport

        The loss means nothing. PAC is a-side regardless of who's name is on the poster first or who walks out first.

          Horn can keep his paper champion status. Crawford will probably take that belt from him, anyways.

          See, to me, this is easy for Manny. All he had to do was knock the MF'er smoove out like Spence did to Brook and Rungvisai did to Choco. Manny failed to do that. I don't give him a free pass and nobody else should, either.
          You say that, as if it's such a simple thing to do. You can't knock everyone out, especially when you're past your prime. Just because Pac didn't knock Horn out, doesn't mean the latter deserved to win the fight.

          It stuns me. Manny is the ONLY fighter I see this crap happening with. If it were ANY. OTHER. FIGHTER. They'd have abandoned them long ago.

          Lemieux makes excuses after getting schooled - gets NO love, no respect.

          Rigondeaux makes excuses after getting schooled - gets NO love, no respect.

          Stiverne makes excuses after getting schooled the first Wilder fight - NO love, no respect.

          Charles Martin makes excuses after getting schooled by Joshua - NO love, no respect.
          Lemieux literally got outboxed every round, Rigo quit, Martin got wrecked, and Stiverne was obliterated. Unlike them, Pacquiao went the distance and did enough to win the fight, so those are bad comparisons. Pac gets respect, because the judges robbed him blind.

          When I see that many excuses - when I see your trainer tell you to rematch Horn or retire and STILL refuse to do it, when I see the guy WHO BEAT YOU CALLING YOU OUT FOR THE REMATCH to give you a chance to prove it was a fluke and you STILL refuse...that's a duck bro.
          What? Pacquiao should rematch Horn, and get robbed again? Who'd wanna fight Horn in Australia, after the bullshit those sus ass judges pulled on Pac?

                    What was the point of giving Jeff Horn the gift against Manny Pacquiao? Now they're just gonna throw him under the bus?

                      Its his last fight on his deal with Top Rank.

                      Arum robbed Pac to set up a rematch because he had Horn for 2 more fights. Pac was busy with his senator job so Arum set this up.
