Comments Thread For: Horn-Crawford Judges: One American, One Australian, One Italian

[oldschoolfool]

this italian judge will be special. from the adelaide byrd school of judging

[DocGreenThumb.]

I got Bud Crawford in 3 or 4 rounds. Time to end the hype job Horn.

[DocGreenThumb.]

Horn can be happy that it's not Bayless; he's not Steve Smoger, but Byrd is going to let him fight, even with things getting rough on the inside.

Not going to take the time to go through judging profiles, but Horn should only be worried about getting judges who will credit his effort and work in the trenches, regardless of nationality

Work in the trenches you mean strangling, headbutts and holding the other fighters head down by leaning with all your weight. Rough house tactics like throwing your opponent to the ground and using your forearms to land. That's why I think Bud wins in 3 or 4 rounds because he's going to be ready for Horns act and knock him out before he can get comfortable trying to apply those tactics of borderline cheating.

Jeff Horn is a pretty big 147lb fighter; Bob Arum apparently thinks that 147lb is it for Crawford.

Size matters

Crawford dont throw much

And horns tough

But its his athleticism and physicality thats gotten him this far.

Horn is playing checkers whilst crawford is playing chess.

If crawford goes to body he will stop horn . He is open for the body shots when he lunges in but he doesnt attack in straight lines like idongo so itll take more time for crawford to time him. I noticed when pac hit him with a body shot it visibly affected horn but pac didnt go downstairs again. When youre struggling to make weight like horn its a good idea for the opponent to test the midrift. Horn covers his chin up well with his shoulders.

I'd like to think if Horn gets on the front foot early and roughs up crawford. It will be a bit of a closer fight. Horn doesn't seem the fighter who would be an easy pushover.

looking forward to this fight.
will tell alot about both guys. i got Horn to win hopefully by K/O.
War Horn.

Maybe on his shoulders with the belt around his waist in celebration?! At least the American won't have to travel far to witness the slaughter.

you're either a deluded Australian or on some hard drugs, most probably both..

I'll write to you after the fight...hope you'll be sober enough to remember

Exactly Bud won't be seeing round 10

Shall we wager???Don't get me wrong the Horn story is cool.Seems like a nice guy but he's out of his element on this one..I'll give you 10-1
