Glenn Rushton, the head trainer for welterweight contender Jeff Horn (18-1-1, 12 KOs) has revealed a mishap with his boxer's shoes - in the days leading up to the anticipated showdown with Terence Crawford (33-0, 24 KOs). This past Saturday night, Crawford captured the WBO welterweight title when he stopped Horn in nine rounds at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

LAS VEGAS – Terence Crawford completely controlled his fight against Jeff Horn, won each of the eight concluded rounds on all three judges’ scorecards and stopped the gutsy Australian in the ninth round. Nothing about their one-sided welterweight title fight suggests the need for a rematch. Horn and his handlers disagree, and want a second shot at Crawford.

Jeff Horn has accused promoters Top Rank of playing "tricks" with the official scales after failing to make the weight at the first attempt for his mandatory world title defence against Terence Crawford. In a dramatic weigh-in on Saturday morning, Horn was given an extra hour to come under the welterweight limit after initially being over the limit, clocking 148 pounds (67.13kg) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

$1.25m, whereas Crawford got $3m. Good for them.

Sweet. How much will tax take out?

Horn and Tim Bradley were given "bob arum" wins over Manny. Tim was smart enough (maybe his wife was) to take the money and STFU!

Someone get Crocodile Dundee to tell Horn to do the same thing because his excuses and whining are becoming annoying.

I have never seen such an average fighter brag on himself so much before a fight and cry and make excuses after getting slaughtered by Crawford. Horn never deserved to be champion to begin with. Pacquiao out landed him 180 punches to 90 punches and got robbed by the judges. Thank you Crawford for beating the hell out of annoying Horn and sending him back home in defeat and humiliation.
