You don't get where Horn has gotten without some talent. This official is a dummy. Now granted Horn isn't on par with Manny or even old Manny, but the kid gots some talent & skill.

The guys rated below him that you mention ALL beat him, his ranking is off Bailey and Funika, both shot , the guy has a draw and has been on his ass in 17 fights, he aint near ready and right now he is every bit a Rod Salka level guy.

Anyone who hadn't seen a few Horn fights prior to this fight being talked about can't really comment.
No point watching his fights after you've already decided he's a bum because your boxing knowledge is limited and you've never heard of him.
Then you're just seeing what you want to see and its just conformation bias.
Of course he wont beat Pac and he hasn't earnt a fight with him but he beats alot of guys at WW.Last edited by Furn; 01-19-2017, 04:32 AM.

its no coincidence that wealthy athletes tend to be among the most talented.
people are trying to give this bum some credit when there wasnt any to be found prior to the pac fight.

Dude I'm probably putting too much weight on some mythical on paper ratings...but I do realize how imperfect the science of rating boxers is...but Rod Salka level? Salka was rated 77th (SEVENTY-SEVENTH!!) in his division when Danny fought him...and now he's rated north of 100. Horn is rated 11th. Are you telling me that boxrec's ratings are so flawed that they can have two guys separated by nearly 100 spots (Salka is rated 108th to be exact), yet they're still basically equal in reality!?
