Comments Thread For: Horn Overcomes Cuts to Bloody, Stop Corcoran in 11th Round

Why is everyone hating on Horn soo much? I can see he’s not a great boxer, he won’t hold the title against a top level guy. But, he’s a school teacher from a country that doesn’t really support boxing, he’s not a big trash talker, he’s just earning a living and getting hit in the head a lot to do it. The Australian’s know who he is because they don’t really know anything about boxing and they put his face in the newspaper, but tbh if you chat to them, none of them know if he’s really any good and just support him to be patriotic. You can’t blame the guy, the problem with multiple sanctioning bodies is you always get these outliers holding a ‘title’ but real boxing fans know who is top of the game.

Australians know who Horn is due to the Pacman fight.

No one in Australia thinks Horn is exceptional and a poll here after the Pacquiao fight had a majority of Australians believing Pacquiao won the fight.

Aussies support Horn not so much due to patriotism (hence the huge support for Pacquiao in the Horn fight) and more so due to his story....

The scrawny, soft spoken, bullied little kid who became a school teacher, represented his country has now become a world champion........
..... it's a great story.

Aussies like battlers.... and Horn is a battler.

On the whole patriotism thing... Anthony Mundine is an Australian who has achieved more than most Australian's do in boxing.... yet he is mostly hated here.....because he is a dickhead.

Patriotism can only take you so far.

Lol wtf of course the corner can stop the fight.... brook/golovkin for example

The trainer threw the towel in but the ref stopped the fight. Only way it can happen.

Jeff the midweek marvel horn a joke like his nations boxing pedigree

[Tankdestroyer]

The corner stopped the fight idiot! The cornerman was up on the side of the ring.

The Assyrian? First time I've seen someone use that name in any online site. Are you from that region or just pretending to be the future antichrist?

He is probably Australias best fighter especially after rolf harris got ko'd twice on c wing. Horn vs dame edna would be a good domestic match up to showcase the best oz has to offer

It took 10 rounds for Floyd to beat a complete novice...

lololol Brutal bud. Just Brutal.

[Sickmerch1990]

Crawford is his mandatory so he either fights Crawford or gives up his belt. He doesnt seem like the type that runs from a challenge so expect horn crawford in April in Australia. Fans shouldnt be encouraging fighters to duck. Once Crawford gets that belt he will be the man to beat at 147. Hopefully the other champs will grow some balls and fight him

not a fan of horn thought manny won the first by a few rounds and bud i want to see in a super fight thought we was gona get that in his last fight to unify all the belts at 140 only crawford or spence at 147 gives us that fight defo not horn like

[GoldenGloveLove]

I can't wait for Crawford to get that strap.

Lmaoooo Antichrist. What an imbecile! Im an ethnic Assyrian mate. Do a little research yourself into the history of the Assyrian nation and the Assyrian people and stop listening to "Youtubers", believing like the sheep you are everything they say. Peace!
