I also am curious how much the fighters weighed at fight night. Horn looked like a junior middleweight standing next to Pac and yet. PAC almost stopped him in the 9th. Its hard to hate on Horn though, seems like a amiable and humble guy, compared to most fighters, i wish him the best.
Only thing with Horn that annoyed me was the walking stick/gloves thing, fucks sake mate, you have just beat someone who is clearly well past their prime and you are calling out someone who is clearly having their last fight (albeit a joke of a fight but the cunt is getting $100+ mill from it) why not beat the other guys in the division before coming out with that sort of shite.
I still think it is tough on Horn to call it a robbery though, I don't know what the actual score cards were but if they were close I don't see how anyone can have any complaints.
I had it 7 to 5 for Pac and that is being generous to Horn for the 2 really close rounds I gave to him. So considering round 9 was a 8-10 round that makes it a 9 to 3 round for Pac. At least from a Pactard like me.
I'm going to have to watch the fight again because I definitely had it a hell of a lot closer than that and I was definitely swinging towards Horn, granted I may have (unknowingly) scored it whilst judging Pac on his former status but maybe the pactards were judging through rose tinted glasses.
I've always loved pac as a fighter so I'd like to think I was neutral but we all know that it is easy to be swung by the commentary and I was watching on BoxNation who also had Horn as winning.
Did you stay up to watch the fight?
Nah, it wasn't worth killing myself for, I only had a few hours kip the night before so I thought it was best that I got my head down.
Saying that I always get up with the sun so I was awake at 5:30 and I watched it then so I was only a few hours behind.
I feel betrayed.

listen Buzz Killington, I had 3 hours kip on Friday night, I went to bed at 2am and was up at 5am killing aliens by squirting pretend aftershave in their eyes (that is the only way to kill aliens apparently) and running away from the fidget spinner dog that was trying to kill us...
all the time I was doing that the little brats parents were in bed enjoying a lie in, I was fucked before Buglioni even got to the ring.
also I made a conscious decision not to stay up all night so that I could go out for a drink today, I feel as though the anti social hours of boxing feeds my misanthropic ways and I am trying to reintegrate myself into society.
although I prefer to be a boxing recluse apparently it is not normal.
In that case I forgive you.
The late night boxing has improved my sleeping in the week for some strange reason.
I barely sleep at the best of times, I get by on between 4 or 5 hours sleep if I'm lucky, not because I can't sleep but because that is all I seem to need, the boxing is great though
''Oi Batman we are all going out on the piss tonight are you coming?'' sorry lads but GGG is fighting Ginger Pubers so I'm staying up to watch that
''Oi Batman its Daves 33rd birthday, it won't be the same if you ain't there'' sorry lads but Floyd is fighting Manny so I'm staying up to watch thaat
and then I have been known to just completely lie
''Oi Batman it's Joe's mothers sisters brothers second removed cousins 13th anniversary we are going out on the piss for it'' sorry lads but Diego is fighting Korabzynikov and I can't miss that fight so I'm staying up to watch it''
never once has anyone asked me who either Diego or Korabzynikov is, its a great excuse to get out of going out, but as I say I have decided that I need to start integrating with the great unwashed again.
On a serious note I think I have a few serious issues that I am going to try and work out before I need to see a shrink.
