Horn struggled to make weight. But is likely to re-hydrate well and be significantly bigger than Crawford come fight time.

Realistically, the only way Jeff will get the decision is to KO Crawford, to take the judges, referee and the dodgy denizens hiding behind the scenes at Las Vegas out of the equation.

Remember how another Jeff got robbed in the same town against Azumah Nelson.

I'm sure Fenech - who is over there and was last seen carrying around an inflatable kangaroo - has told him the exact same thing.

9th round tko

Crawford a class act. Horn courageous in defeat. I couldn't find a round for him. But it was a premature stoppage.

I had no dramas with the stoppage. Hadn’t won a round and was copping plenty. Didn’t look like he had too much left to land a big one and turn the tide where Crawford still looked pretty fresh. Better to stop it one punch too early than one too late. He lives to fight another day.

I'm a believer in the 'live to fight another day philosophy', and if it wasn't a world title fight I would have been more comfortable with the stoppage. But as much as Horn was headed for defeat, I think with his world title on the line, he deserved a bit longer.

Whatever, Horn was outclassed. Went out on his shield, and Crawford is now on the march to collect another set of belts.

Merciful stoppage by ref, Horn lost 8 rounds in a row, knocked down in the 9th. Crawford just teeing off at will. towel should have come in at the knock down. Crawford in a different class.

Yeah, Crawford landed something significant in every round. Absolutely fair stoppage with Horn being finally down and continuing to take serious shots after that.

Jeff Horn and team calling for a rematch. But hard to see the point of it. Crawford has bigger fights ahead and Horn needs to lick his wounds and with his team work out the way forward.

No Jeff you didn't go allright. You never looked like winning a round. You met an elite welter and got trounced. The welter
division is stacked with similar elite fighters, 154 is no easier.
Take your dad's advice........ get on the phone and call choc and make some money. There are only so many times they can stitch you up with 26 stitches. Forget the re-match talk it aint gonna happen.
