Comments Thread For: Crawford Beats Down, Stops Horn in Nine For WBO Title

[Mister Wolf]

Crawford captures the essence of the sweet science. He is what we talk about when we say slick. No wild **** just clean accurate hard power shots while maintaining defense dodging and blocking punches.

True, one is prime the other is 39 years old with almost 70 fights... And still won

But bud is bigger and stronger than Manny so all his **** tactics didnt work.

Prime Pac would have **** Horn up pretty badly

It wasn't about age it was about skill set. I think even in his prime Pacquiao would be bothered by Horn but probably wouldn't look as bad as he did. Crawford's style is perfect to fight a guy like Horn. All he had to do was use Horn's momentum against him and land counters. Pacquiao needed Horn to stay at range and wait for him to land his combo. He doesnt know how to move and counter.

BUD slick AF and super accurate.

Bad stoppage. Pacquiao will be upset seeing this because his fight with Horn could've been stopped as well. Horn has proven he can withstand a beatdown this ref should've let it continue.

But won't get too hyped on Crawford all he did was beat up a bum. Meh.

My thoughts exactly. But giving Horn another round would be too lucky for that fake champion. Horn has no business continuing with both fighters. The guy just have a lot of heart and mostly wrestling tactics not boxing skills.

was a brutal beating

horn is super tough

[Dr.Cool]

Bud with another paper title.

Too bad, he has admitted he is like g and won't fight anyone good until he is at least 35. Only four more years.

Spence beat down Brook, DSG has all kinds of tough fights, Thurman beat DSG and Porter, Porter fought Brook, Broner, and Thurman... And Bud has fought Postol and Horn. lmao. And it was a $5 ppv! Even AB has fought Vargas, Maidana, Porter and Mikey. And Bud has fought a gym teacher and Postal worker Postol. Wake me up when he fights someone good. Every other top ww has fought numerous top opponents. Bud is the oldest and hasn't fought one. Sad.

But then again, that is why hbo kicked him to the curb.


Bud is great, but he is the second biggest cherry-picker in the game. The rumor is Bud is calling for a rematch with Dulorme.

You didn't see Spence draggin a gym teacher out of Australia for the first time in his career. Spence went after Brook. In Brook's own backyard. The Hornet wouldn't make it to round 3 with Spence, DSG, or Thurman.

Still, Bud continues to dominate journeymen. Gotta give him that.
Terrence "the journeyman killer" Crawford.

The real test will come against Spence and Thurman

[Bluebird]

I have to admit, if Pac beats Matthysse, I would love to see Crawford put a brutal end to "The Senator"

No, Pac is 39, win or lose, he should retire after the Matthysse fight. Crawford should fight Spence next to see who the best welterweight boxer is.

Ha! Let me guess! The fight was rigged! Even trying to maul Horn got beat at his own game. I wonder how much he weighed at fight time? If anyone gave Horn a round, it was a charity round! Well we won't have to worry about someone saying they thought Horn won since no decision!

[Mister Wolf]

Wonder if Matthysee would duck Crawford.
