I think the Aussies have a real prospect on their hands here. Interesting character & his manager sounds like a right one too.
Best of luck to him.
Jeff Horn
Re: Jeff Horn
He has the potential to be world class for sure but I think Qamil Balla is more skilled and would win a decision if they met.

Re: Jeff Horn
Watching that clip Balla looks like an exciting, albeit wreckless, puncher. Would love to see him on a few TV cards this year. I noticed he got dropped in his pro debut, so maybe that has firced him to tighen things up a bit. Anyway good lukc to him, can't wait to see him fight again.
I think based on their professional records Horn would be a very solid favourite if they met as 3 of Horn's last 4 fights have been against guys of much higher quality that anything Balla has fought.

After their TD last year the Horn V Cesaire rematch on Fox in a month's time should be good value.
I think the Hornet wins this one.
Re: Jeff Horn
Qamil is a lovely young man and a very good boxer but there's a very good reason why he won't be looking to step up to welterweight anytime soon. There is nothing in a fight with Qamil for Jeff Horn. His rise in the pro's has been hard to keep up with. He is meeting Cesaire on March 19 for a WBO Oriental Title and a chance for a top 15 WBO ranking. Horn by stoppage for mine but Cesaire will hang around for a while. Should be a live Fox show and not to be missed.
Re: Jeff Horn
It is Fox show, but promoter Myer is yet to confirm title.
Re: Jeff Horn
He will do something special, my money is on him to be the next big thing from here. Hid win over Rabah as a professional in his first year is unprecedented, with the exception of guys like Fenech & Kostya.
