I don't venture in those part of the site that often but surely nobody can make Horn a favourite against Garcia as of now?

I'm not even sure if Horn would beat Sam Eggington. Horn has struck me as solid but nothing special, and his opposition leaves a lot to be proven; he's in a tough division and I think it's very debatable that he's fought anyone who was among the best 50 fighters at the weight.

Jeff horn awesome fighter tough smart and all class

According to matchmaker Stu Duncan :

"Lamont Peterson, Konstantin Ponomarev & Bradley Skeete were all offered the last fight, the one Mueller accepted, with plenty of notice and good purse, and they all knocked it back".

I wonder what those fighters' teams would say.

There is almost always two sides to boxing negotiations. True is invariably the first victim when things go public.
