SB Crew Discussion: Pacquiao vs Horn

[Buck Swope]

As much as I would like a good young boxer to come up in the ranks, Horn's head butts negated anything his win may have achieved. That isn't boxing.

There's a boxing discussion, where people talk about boxing, you should have posted this there.

My mistake. I thought it would be cool here.

Isn't this how it always ends? The old boxer quits training like he should. Rust starts building. And he loses to someone that he maybe could have beaten earlier in his career with almost one hand. Old boxers go out with a whimper, not a roar.

I haven't watched it but the highlights show the ref asking Horn if he wants to quit the fight two rounds from the end. I don't think this went as planned. Why the hell is the ref asking a question like that if he is winning the fight?

Manny caught him and pummeled in that round. Horn recovered well (primarily because Manny looked spent and couldn't further capitalize). I had Manny ahead at that point and ultimately winning the fight, but it wasn't a blow out up to that point or anything.

Manny has always been an overrated can. He's made his career behind 3 controversial wins agains Marquez so don't care that he lost to Horn.

I agree but the head butts were F'd up. Manny's scalp was a bloody mess from an illegal blow. At least a point should have been taken off after the second one.

God, I can't believe Manny is still fighting after all the wars he has been in. What a legend.

 

[Graves The Elder]

he has to keep fighting.
he supports two thirds of his country

 

[HaulParris]

Hometown judging screwed up what should be remembered as a good fight. Now we get a rematch (if not a trilogy) instead of just moving on with our lives.

He's used and abused by friends and family. His $ is waning.

I was rooting for him, but he didn't out point Pacquiao (head butts or no head butts). That was a robbery by bias judges.
