Crawford vs Horn?

Uncle Bob says no Pac vs Horn in Australia or Vegas. Manny only wants to fight in the Philippines.

Arum says it is very possible he may line Crawford up with Horn instead. I would love to see that fight, and find out how good Horn actually is. Pretty sure I already know the answer to that.

Horn was beaten by shot Manny. Crawford will easily outbox him.

Crawford - Horn kind of makes sense. Horn sort of took some of Pacquiao's juice, in theory. But unofficially, Pacquiao kind of clearly won that fight, and hopefully the average fan doesn't acknowledge him as a true Pacquiao conqueror. So, for that reason, Crawford - Horn can't be as big as it would be if Horn had truly beat Pacquiao.

If I were Arum, my priorities in the 140-pound ballpark would be...
1) Crawford - Pacquiao
2) Pacquiao - McGregor
3) Crawford - Garcia
4) Lomachenko - Garcia
5) Crawford - Horn
6) Pacquiao - Lomachenko
7) Pacquiao - Garcia

So I don't think I would be too eager to make Crawford - Horn unless other things weren't an option.

Unlikely, I'm betting on Crawford/Vargas. He'd easily beat any of them, he'd beat prime ped PAC.

:lol: Laughable thought!!

The only compelling fight for crude brawler Jeff Horn would be against Conor McGregor, which would probably be a very competitive matchup!! :OhYes:

I agree it is laughable, but still would like to see it. Too bad someone like Porter couldn't get a shot at the belt. He would beat Horn fairly easily too. He would also not be afraid to trade head butts with Horn.

Pacquaio at his best would be a serious handful to Crawford. But based on what Marquez was able to do with good counter punching and timing, you'd have to say Crawford has a live shot at beating him

I am half-serious, knowing it will never happen (McGregor would never settle for the pittance he would get for fighting Horn).

But I'm TOTALLY serious about it being a competitive fight, action-packed and could go either way!! :OhYes:
