HOLLYWOOD—Former welterweight champion Yordenis Ugas, who upset Manny Pacquiao in their August 2021 fight, was left in awe by the Filipino legend’s inspiring showing against Mario Barrios. Pacquiao showed he’s still going strong even at 46 after going toe-to-toe with a much bigger opponent who’s also 16 years younger.

Manny Pacquiao's return to the ring at the weekend after a four-year hiatus marked the latest example of a boxer well past his prime who could not resist the temptation of the squared circle and a chance to add to his competitive legacy.

Saturday's scorecards robbed Pacquiao of a legendary win befitting a legendary career. They also stole from him something more precious — time.

HOLLYWOOD–Congressman? Senator? The only title Manny Pacquiao is after now can only be won inside the ring. Pacquiao’s boxing career is back on track again, and he said political career is over–at least for now.

Given the circumstances, Manny Pacquiao may have turned in one of his best performances, but it wasn't enough to earn victory over Mario Barrios.

Each card contains world title fights and big names, with fights ranging from Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois for the undisputed heavyweight championship to Manny Pacquiao ending his retirement at 46 to fight Mario Barrios for the WBC welterweight championship.
