Good use of the forearm on the inside to prevent Horn from clinching. Gotta do that to clowns like Khan, Horn, and Hatton who try to cheat with excessive holding.

You caught that too! Tim has been schooled on rough inside-fighting. I noticed that Tszyu would offer Jeff his ( Tszyu's ) arm & shoulder to set up a variety of attacks to both head and body ; as Horn has a habit of burying his head on the aforesaid area in order to come around with a looping right hand, that lands on the side of the head and often become rabbit-punches.

A good look for Tszyu to be able to deal with the strong rugged style, Tim can box and get grimy. Tszyu has potential to grow even more.

The Sweet Science must have got quarantined somewhere before this one, it was fugly. Hard to tell how good Tsuyu in dealing with Horn's (lack of) style, but he got the job done in spades, so credit to him for dealing with the crap in front of him and hopefully we get to see him in an actual boxing match at some point.

That guy has no idea about boxing, he's normally a suburban martial arts trainer. Not sure why Jeff kept training with him, after the Crawford fight he should of looked for a better coach, I mean any coach would of done a better job than this meth smoking idiot.

Spot on comment. Rushton learnt nothing from the Crawford fight and it's been obvious for a long time that he just doesn't know boxing. Let's hope he now disappears from the boxing scene forever.

Completely agree. Terrible fight to watch but Tim was dominant right the way through.

Before the fight I figured Jeff's experience had to count for something, but you could see within the first minute that he wasn't up to it.

Got to give him credit for what he's achieved. He's a nobody who beat Manny Pacquiao! But I hope it ends for him now.

except horn did not beat pacquiao. winning a belt via robbery is not something I would be proud of when you have the whole world saying you did not win that fight that tells you something. teddy atlas who's no pacquiao fan by the was screaming that pac got robbed and told horn to his face he did NOT win that fight.

You guys are funny that bring up Pac-Horn and then how post Pac opponents fought Horn.Here's a crazy concept some of you might not be able to grasp.

Pac took Horn lightly and struggled, yet beat Horn convincingly. I say that to the fact that Horn's face looked like mush at the end of the fight and he was nearly out on his feet in what? The 9th round? Okay they gave it to Horn. Robbery at it's boxing's finest, whatever, it happens.

Now that EVERY opponent post Pac-Horn realize, Horn gave Pac an L, don't you think they would up their A game against Horn knowing that he has Pac on his resume and Horn will look good on their resume? Perhaps Pac taking the "L" helped others realize, the robbery can be in the books if you end up fighting him in Australia.

LOL Just tell us one thing - Tszyu was easily able to handle Horn's rough house tactics for a clear win, why couldn't Manny do the same?

You practards have no idea.

You wouldn't be proud of winning a World Title against Pacquiao? You'd be proud to make it out of the first round!

The records will always show that he beat Pacquiao. He can dine out on that for the rest of his life.

Even if you think he didn't deserve the points decision, surely you've got to give him credit? Completely over matched against an all time great - and he came out and gave it absolutely everything he had.

He's achieved things the vast majority can only dream of... and he's just a teacher from Queensland.

Never understood the hate.
