Kovalev does what Manny doesn't: Avenge a dominant loss. A true warrior.

    He TRIED to get a rematch with Floyd - a guy who doesn't hold a belt (so the whole "beltholders only" excuse doesn't fly).

    Yet ducks Horn. It's shameful compared to what Kovalev just did last night.
    I bet the fighter PAC fights next beats horn

    I like the horn rematch for PAC .

    Roach was saying how PAC is bigger now

    Hopefully they have a competent ref who doesn't allow horn to foul like he did in first fight .

      Ive TREID to give a f about this thread and i have TRIED to understand your fascination about a rematch with Horn

      It was a close fight and does nothing for manny finacially i reckon it was a cherry pick gone wrong which he can say he won theres no need for a rematch the fight wasnt even that good anyways Horns just a bully at that weight and pacquiao is a 140lber

      Dont see the reason why hed get in there for high risk low reward

      However if Jeff Horn was recognised as the p4p number 1 right now we all know Manny would be screaming for the fight

        You seriously need to stop wasting your own time and think of a more awe inspiring thread

          Look, I actually agree with you, but we need to see that to know for sure. Right now it's all speculation. The predoMANNYt theory is that Horn bullies him to another victory. I actually think if Manny were brave enough to face Horn again, he'd dominate and stop him with ease.

          My point is, we need to see to know for sure instead of guessing either way.

            Manny Pacquiao is a straight up coward and his fans that make excuses about why he's ducking the Jeff Horn rematch are enablers to why he's lost so much respect in the mainstream.
            Pac is respected big time now. He's GOAT as far as many are concerned.
            Pac has always avenged losses.
            Just jmm and floyd didn't want to give him rematch. That's why Pac hasn't lost to jmm and floyd really

                You must have forgotten Pac KO'd Morales in the rematch.
                There is no interest in Pac-Horn II.

                This is just another dumb argument.

                  Nobody asked for a third Bradley fight but Manny did it anyway. He TRIED.
                  Horn aint Bradley, not even close. Lets be realistic, Timmy has a HOF career whereas your boy Horn is not a great boxer but a tough and rugged fighter. After Bradley’s rather controversial win over Pac in their first fight, he went on to beat Provodnikov and Marquez(right after he KO’d Pac) while your guy beat up a washed up, loudmouth Mundine. Now, tell me, does Horn deserve a rematch?

                    Horn certainly deserves more respect than you slur him with.

                      Chocolatito: He TRIED. He got his ass kicked both times, that's not the point. He TRIED.

                      Maidana: He TRIED. Lost close the first time, lost wide the second time. That's not the point. He TRIED.
                      Manny tried to avenge his KO to Marquez for years and Marquez didn't want to risk ruining his storybook ending.

                      He's also actively trying to avenge the Floyd loss.

                      He did avenge the Bradley loss. Twice over.

                      So is this solely about Horn? Most people thought Manny won. I'm a lot more interested in seeing him against Thurman. Most would agree.
