Boxing fans have been reacting on social media after seeing the judges' scorecards from the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Mario Barrios.

On Saturday night, there was a heavyweight showdown between Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium in London.

Usyk came out victorious after a stunning left hook dismantled Dubois in the fifth round.

Across the Atlantic Ocean, there was another big fight as 46-year-old Pacquiao made his comeback against Barrios in the WBC welterweight championship at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Following his rather disappointing outings in previous exhibition bouts, many felt the much younger Barrios would beat Pacquiao.

However, the fight went the full 12 rounds before being declared a majority draw.

Judges Tim Cheatham and Steve Weisfeld scored the bout 114-114, but Max De Luca had it 115-113 for Barrios.

Round Seven proved to be the deciding round on De Luca's scorecard as he scored it for Barrios, but Cheatham and Weisfeld gave it to Pacquiao.

Reacting on social media, one fan said: "Manny Pacquiao boxing like this at 46 what a legend . He got robbed AGAIN."

Another tweeted: "ust watched the highlights. Pacquiao got robbed lol he won that."

A third fan added: "Can’t believe he got robbed by the judges on a night where he should have broke records."

Someone else wrote: "Manny Pacquiao WAS ROBBED!!!"

A fifth commented: "That's why Pacquiao is called "THE PEOPLE'S CHAMP" he always get robbed. He clearly won this!"


Speaking after the fight, Pacquiao said: "I thought I won the fight. I mean, it was a close fight. My opponent was very tough. But it was a wonderful fight.

"I was trying to find a way to finish the fight but my opponent was so tough. He threw punches in combination and with defense, so it was hard."

Meanwhile, Barrios said: "I thought I pulled it out. But I still tip my hat to Manny. It was an honor to share the ring with him, somebody with so much experience who has accomplished so much in this sport. We left everything in the ring, nothing but love and respect."
