Horn/Crawford: Let's not have excuses after the fight please

[chaosisme]

Nope...I don't want to hear excuses. I don't want to hear it. Whoever gets the W...whoever gets their hand raised, however they do...give them props as they will become the new face of Boxing.

You must have Sven Ottke pretty high up on the ATG list.

ATG? No.
Solid? Yes.

Considering he retired undefeated, unified SMW and beat the prime version of a guy that sparked Roy Jones.

We're one week away from history being made.

Will Terence Crawford make his successful entry into the Welterweight division and send a statement to the others? Or will he struggle with the Hornet just like Manny did, even in victory?

Will Jeff 'The Hornet' Horn shock the world again, despite more screams of robbery (which is silly, since the fight is in America, but whatever) or will he become the spiritual successor to Chris Algieri?

The way I see it, Crawford will dissect Horn and stop him between rounds 6-8. Horn was able to get away with dirty tactics and a huge size advantage against Pac, and some absolutely incompetent/corrupt judging in his backyard. He won't be the bigger man against Crawford and won't be able to bully him with clinches, headbutts, headlocks and shoving. Crawford is going to peel Horn's face off and Horn will slip back into obscurity where he belongs. He's had his 15 minutes of fame.

I got this ^^^^^ happing before the eight round ends.

Some shady scale behavior isn't enough to stop The Hornet. Arum says ESPN wants Crawford to win. Is the fix in...?

It depends, is Crawfords contract with TR up after this fight? We all know how Bob rolls, he screws over the guy who's about to walk away and gets them an L.

[MDPopescu]

... this is #1 Welterweight vs. #1 Jr. Welterweight in the World.

... I don't know why you have Horn ranked as #1 Welterweight...

[alexguiness]

I hope and know Crawford is going to smash this guy to pieces and I will love it.

I agree, Horn deserves the bloody beating he will receive at the hands of Crawford.

Usually I always back the white guy, but this time I am rolling with Brother Bud.

Horn won't see the 10th round.

Mean old bob arum made horn use the Top Rank gym for the last week which doesnt even have AC. I bet his hotel only had a queen size bed and a small TV. He would have won the fight if he had a luxury gym and hotel.

Crawford better dominate this guy because the judges seem awful.

Don’t worry. Even if the judges are swayed, Crawford will have Byrd in there breaking them up every chance he gets.
