I like Jeff Horn, I think he's a good solid fighter he's very blue collar shades of Gatti or probably better his fellow countryman Michael Katsidis.


That said, I doubt that Pac loses to Horn unless he's gotten significantly older.

I did not know the fight was actually happening.

Yes....now I wouldn't mind seeing Pac have a fight taken to him by a relative newcomer but again, I just don't see Horn being that guy.


Not really sure who I would want Pac to fight other than Bud Crawford or Lomachenko

All-Time fighters tend to lean towards fighters were resemble themselves, especially when that fighter is known as a powerful slugger who is going against a more finesse or quicker fighter.

How about the other top Welters?

Horn can be relentless and if Pac overlooks him or has slipped significantly there's a possibility of an upset. I agree with the similarities to Katsidis in style although Horn is not as big a puncher in my opinion. Horn is taking advantage of the opportunity presented to him. If he does lose I hope he takes it as a learning experience as I think he is capable of competing on the contenders level with a little polishing.
