Boxing fans were left furious on Saturday night after Manny Pacquiao’s return to the ring at age 46 ended in a draw.
Pacquiao put forth a valiant effort against the much younger Mario Barrios in the WBC welterweight title fight, but was ultimately unable to regain the belt as the bout was scored 115-113 (in favor of Barrios), 114-114 and 114-114.
And fans were livid at the judges’ decision to rule the fight a majority draw and keep the belt with Barrios.
‘Manny Pacquiao won that fight with ease. These judges are hot garbage,’ one wrote on X.
‘Pacquiao was robbed.. a draw give me a break!,’ another said.
A third chimed in: ‘NAH DRAW???? PACQUIAO WON THAT.’
