A good and entertaining fight which displayed two boxers that were quite active till it end off. Mueller was very brave but fully overwhelmed by Horn during the whole fight but being quite noticeable from round 6 to 9. The stoppage was correct. Horn is fast and accurate showing excellent physical conditions and boxing Technics. His moves in the ring and the angles used to shot his punches are second to none. A nice surprise coming from Australia and a boxer that should be watched in his futures bouts because he is an excellent prospect.
