Comments Thread For: Jeff Horn Confident: I Should Beat Anthony Mundine Easily!

[robbyheartbaby]

Horn did not beat Manny; Horn was gifted a decision, and that was all. Despite Horn's use of dirty and illegal tactics against Manny, it was Horn who took the beating; just look at Horn's condition at the end of the fight. As for the scoring of the fight, just check CompuBox to see how badly Horn was out-punched by Manny, and then try saying that the decision was anything but a corrupt "Hometown" decision. Furthermore, it was Horn's dirty/illegal techniques which resulted in his losing any support from the vast majority of boxing fans world wide.

Dude the record books say it was a loss, and that's all there is to it, the 'hometown' decision was backed up by a panel of WBO INTERNATIONAL judges so Manny lost fairly and squarely. Horn's condition at the end of the fight is irrelevant, and dude I am a HUGE Manny fan and wanted him to kick Horn's a**. I am just saying Horn is not done he only just took his first loss and that was to the best at 147.

You must be Australian to be defending him. He was given a gift decision vs Pac. Took a safe defense after that. Then when he was given a real test he failed miserably. The guy is a 1 hit wonder (a gifted 1 hit at that).

I am Australian, and proud of it, Horn wasn't the first boxer to be given a controversial decision but people calling it corrupt or whatever need to get over it. I am just saying he isn't done he lost to the best at 147 and gave a great account of himself I would love to see him take on some big names after he finishes with Mundine.

Yes, that's what the record book says; however, the reality is that Manny out boxed Jeff, and despite the corrupt judging, the stats compiled and the video recorded are proof that just because Jeff was gifted the decision doesn't mean that he actually won the fight: "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" if you get Shakespeare.

im a manny fan, i went to the fight and tbh at the fight it seemed very very close. it just looked like manny could not get his rhythm. then he finally had horn in trouble in the 9th but couldnt put him away and horn actually came back stronger in remaining rounds.

anyway, i think mundine upsets horn here. horn is a tuff kid but i have a feeling mundine can time him and hurt him.

He gave a great account for himself? How so? He was completely dominated by Crawford.

Jeff landed alot of right hooks that were meaningful but her he got dominated by in some people's books the no.1 p4p.
He will give any of the top welters a decent fight.
Not saying he wins them all but he would win a few.

Horn only just lost his first fight to Bud and beat Manny last year how has the ship sailed? He is still a top 10 welterweight with a bright future, surely all Americans aren't that naive?

Manny needs to take the re-match to settle this fight once and for all.
If Manny thinks he won then why not with the re-match.
If he came back to Australia it would be huge and get himself a very big cheque.

Understand, people here will remain upset that their guy Manny was beaten. They haven't accepted any Manny loss and never will. Even clear, decisive ones.

No matter how much they bish and winge the facts remain that Jeff " Hornet" Horn won that fight and in the record books their wont be no asterisk mark next to his name cause he won it fair and square.
Even with the re-judging.
Manny fans just need to start asking the question.
When is the re-match Manny?.
If he wants to make money plus put this slight to rest then its upto him to say yes.
Otherwise it's Jeffs win all day and for eternity.

Good enough. As for the Mundine/Horn fight, I've not really put any thought into it and therefore don't want to make any prediction myself, so we'll soon see if you are right.

People including myself were throwing out predictions of the fight going 3 rounds, it went deep, and the stoppage was premature, Horn gave a good account of himself. Bud was always gonna beat him.
