Legend or not, I think a fighter who's 38 years old and on the tail end of his career is entitled to fight a "can."
Apparently not.

Wasn't Mayweather supposed to destroy Maidana the first time?
Maidana vs Mayweather was a HELL of a lot closer than Pac vs Horn.
The corruption is real.
But also, styles make fights.
Why you hate Pac? He's one of the best ever, but he needs to retire.
Chino and Horn are light years apart. We witnessed Chino take apart a very game Adrien Broner and go to war against Erik Morales. Nobody even knew who Jeff Horn 3 weeks ago.
This is sort of like saying "Let's be honest, Warriors vs Clippers was a HELL of a lot closer than Cavs vs St. John's." They aren't comparable.

I disagree with you. Also that was a closer fight. What skills does Maidana possess? He beat Broner. Okay.
Horn and Maidana are basically the same. I saw at least one skilled tactic that Horn used. I don't know if I identified any skill in Maidana's game outside of just being unorthodox.
Maidana fights like a caveman but he put it on Mayweather for 12 rounds. Styles make fights, and sometimes that's how it happens.
What exactly are you arguing? Are you saying that Horn beat Pacquaio cuz that makes you a hater more than anything.

I don’t like him but that doesn’t blind me from seeing the things he has accomplished in boxing. He was quite skilled but his best days are now behind.
I agree, there is corruption but that’s nothing new. Some decisions make you scratch your head and wonder how the fight was scored or if there was something we missed: Chavez vs Whitaker (and I am a Chavez fan), the Marquez vs Pacquiao fights specially the 3rd one, Horn vs Pacquiao, Lewis vs Holyfield, etc.
