Shocking: Manny Pacquiao filters shocking evidence that the judges wood the neighborhood fight! The boxing world is outraged!

At 1:07 AM +07 on Tuesday, July 29, 2025, the boxing world has been shaken by an explosive revelation: Manny Pacquiao has leaked alleged evidence that suggests that the judges wood their fight against Mario Barrios, culminated in a majority draw on July 19 in the MGM Grand Garden Arena. In a video posted at 12:50 AM +07 on its social networks, Pacquiao presented documents and recordings that, according to him, demonstrate manipulation in the scoring cards, including an unofficial card of 117-111 in his favor that contradicts the official result of 115-113, 114-114 and 114-114. This bomb has unleashed a wave of global outrage, with fans, experts and former champions demanding an investigation, while the Athletic Commission of the Nevada State (NSAC) and the World Boxing Council (CMB) face pressure to respond.

The context of the controversy

On July 19, Pacquiao, 46, returned to the ring after four years of retirement, facing Barrios for the WBC Welter title. Despite dominating the intermediate rounds with 101 of 577 connected blows (17.5%) and a margin of 81-75 in bumps of power according to compute, the judges granted the majority tie, triggering boos of the 13,107 fans present. Since then, rumors of irregularities have circulated, fed by statements from Pacquiao as “these Americans try to force me to lose” and support from figures such as Terence Crawford and Shannon Sharpe, who called the result a “robbery.” Today’s filtration raises the dispute to a new level.

The revealed tests

In his video, Pacquiao showed a document that claims to be an internal score card of the referee Dave Moretti, indicating 117-111 in his favor, along with an audio recording where an alleged judge is heard discussing adjustments on the scores before the official announcement. Although authenticity has not been verified, Pacquiao said: “I have the evidence that the victory was stolen. This is not just over me, it is about justice in boxing.” He also suggested that the betting pressure and the influence of promoters could be behind, citing meetings prior to combat that, according to him, indicated a plan to favor neighborhoods. His team, led by Freddie Roach, supported the statements, insisting that they reviewed the tapes and found inconsistencies.

Reactions in the world of boxing

The outrage has exploded in social networks, with #JusticiaParapacquiao and #Juecescorruptos Trending at 1:07 AM +07. Former champions like Keith Thurman and Shawn Porter have supported Pacquiao, with Thurman tweeting: “Vegas does not let Pacquiao lose, but this time it was too obvious.” Analysts like Teddy Atlas have requested immediate investigation, while fans cry: “This is a scandal, judges must be sanctioned!” Barrios, on the other hand, kept initial silence, but his coach, Bob Santos, denied the accusations at 1:00 am +07, saying: “Manny gave a great fight, but the cards were fair.”

The NSAC issued a statement at 12:58 AM +07, stating: “We are reviewing Pacquiao’s allegations and we will request verifiable evidence. Any action will depend on the facts.” The WBC, as a sanctioning body, also promised to cooperate, but warned that the evidence must be conclusive. However, the lack of an immediate response has intensified criticism, with some speculating that the influence of Riyadh Season or Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) could be at stake.

Speculations and context

The theory of a mistress is not new in boxing, with cases such as Adalaide Byrd in 2017 (Golovkin vs. Alvarez) feeding suspicions. Pacquiao’s filtration suggests that bets – where it was a significant underdog in Betmgm – could have influenced, especially given the financial profile of the event, estimated at millions per PPV. Some believe that their icon status and their recent electoral defeat in the Philippines could have motivated a “theft” narrative to boost their political career or a lucrative rematch. Others see an attempt to reform transparency in the score, a recurring theme from the Mayweather vs. fight. Pacquiao in 2015.

What does this mean?

If the tests are confirmed, the NSAC could cancel the tie, giving the title to Pacquiao or ordering a rematch, which would revive its legacy at 46. For neighborhoods, an invalidation would damage its credibility, while the WBC would face pressure to reform its processes. Financially, a rematch could generate 50 million dollars, especially with the interest of Saudi Arabia. At 1:07 AM +07, while the scandal grows, the boxing world awaits a resolution, with the filtration of Pacquiao challenging the integrity of sport and promising an uncertain future.
