Comments Thread For: Jeff Horn Exercises Rematch Clause, Team Zerafa is Furious

This is the guy who brought a cane to the ring before the Manny fight and used it after the BS decision as a prop to challenge Floyd. Interesting. Maybe Horn and Zerefa will have a head butt contest or a Body slam challenge in the rematch

Horn reminds me a bit of kataidis. Both tough guys with decent talent but really bad trainers who are so short on boxing knowledge that it let's them down big time.

What Zerafa's manager saying is dumb

It's the contract ******. And you had you fighter sign it!

Why did you put in an immediate rematch clause?
Because you didn't think you'd beat Horn.

So that's opportunism, and making out Horn look selfish.

Having said all that, I don't think Horn belongs at any weight above 147.

When you beat the legendary Anthony Mundine by KO in the first...when you beat a legend, you become a legend.

Yeah, the legendary Bumdine with no vasaline.
Legendary...

People can blame his trainer but after Pac he completely gave up sustaining his training and eating regime. Thats on him. His ego outgrew his hunger and thus his career at the elite level lasted one fight.

Horn's body hates the 9th round.


He almost went out against Manny in the 9th. He lost to Bub and Zerafa in the 9th.


He will lose again in the 9th. It is destiny.

Murata payday? The Horn fight was the payday. Now he's getting paid to run it back. Boo hoo hoo.

Have you looked at the whole situation concerning the Crawford fight? Because if you did you would have a clue as to what happened and why. A boxer depends on his camp for support and advice as well as appropriate coaching and training. Horn got nothing yet he got blamed for the loss which of course does nothing to address his faults.

Don't sign a contract with a rematch clause if you don't want a rematch FFS.

Exactly.

Sometimes that’s the only offer on the table and sometimes people don’t believe they will actually win.

Fair enough, but don't complain when they exercise their contractual rights.

This is what I respect out of fighters. Acknowledge the embarrassing loss, do a rematch and prove to me that you are better than that.

NOW WHY COULDN'T MANNY BE LIKE THIS AFTER HE LOST?? This is EXACTLY what Manny should have said.

Because Pac and more than 90% of boxing fans all over the world knew Pac won that fight and with a few more meaningful fights left before he retires, a Horn rematch is not an option. What part of that don’t you understand?
