      I'm from Australia and l for one don't have a great deal of respect for Horny. It's the way he and his team have carried on after a very dubious home town decision that's rubbed me the wrong way. As another poster has said he could have taken a page from Bradley's book.

        Maybe because you didn't win the fight, but anyway beat Crawford and you will get all the respect!

          Had he stolen a good fight, sure. But, he looked like an ape and was allowed to repeatedly get away with all kinds of BS. I was seriously not impressed.

            Love the old "It doesn't bother me" but i'll keep on talking about it because "it doesn't bother me". It didn't bother Bradley either and nearly killed his career because he wouldn't STFU about it.

              That’s because you didn’t win the commentator was saying how the ref should stop it and all of a sudden you get a decision victory with a destroyed face. Props for hanging in there but Crawford is on another level.

                I don't think it was THAT dubious a hometown decision.

                I'm more disappointed & upset about what the ref allowed Horn to get away with. I legit felt bad for Manny during this fight with how abused he got in there vs this young, bigger dude who couldn't hold his jockstrap when he was in his prime or even a few years removed from it.

                  Dubious because had Horn pulled that s**t anywhere else he would have had points deducted and it would have been a fairly lopsided UD to Paq.

                    With the rough tactics? Yea I don't disagree, but we were in Aussieland & Horn did get away with it rightly or wrongly so it is what it is. Since it was all deemed legal to me the decision makes sense or I should say the decision was within the margin of error for me. I felt Manny won, but it was close.

                      A lot of us felt he didn't deserve the win against Pacquiao.

                      It wasn't just Teddy Atlas.
