Comments Thread For: Jeff Horn Admits That Money Will Dictate His Next Opponent

I will buy his next PPV and report all of the illegal streams.

Said his mum!

Funny but absolutely true!

Hopefully he’ll be able to afford a decent pair of training shoes...

Egidijus "The Mean Machine" Kavaliauskas vs. Jeff "The Hornet" Horn! Make It Happen! I know Topr Rank doesn't like to do this, but this should be the undercard for Crawford vs. Benavidez!

After his pathetic and limited performance against Bud they should be paying him less I know I wouldn't pay $0.05 to watch him...

Going from Bud to Mundine is like going from Champagne to flat diet coke.

Horn needs to be realistic, his moment in the sun is coming to an end. His options are limited. He has to choose wisely, and bank what he can. He might be able to land one more fight against a decent name at 147, but it isn't a given that anyone will care enough about him for the fight to be made.
I'm guessing his best chance is to be thrown in against a young up-and-comer who will be happy to have an ex-titlist on their resume - one where there is enough interest in the younger fighter that there would be some money in the fight.

The Mundine fight should be his last option. Sadly, it will actually make him a bit of cash. But it will likely remain an option for a while. He could have another fight against an actual, real fighter first, and bank what he can - then fight Mundine and cash his last paycheck.

Could well be. I'm really hoping Spence chooses something a lot more meaningful.

The thing is, there is some mileage out of beating an ex-titlist. Especially if they only just lost their title in the previous fight.

It isn't huge or anything, but it might be enough to tempt someone who is looking for a low risk way to get a 'name' on their resume, regardless of how good that 'name' even is...

None of the actual talents at WW would or should be interested. But someone on the fringes might be. Who knows?

How is Spence ducking hard fights if he can't get those fights? You can't get much harder than going across the pond and breaking Brooks' face in front of is peeps.

They wanna forget what Tank did! They wanna forget what Errol did! Ugas would break Horn up too! I hope they do fight "The Mean Machine," so I can see Horn get broken!
