Mane Bacoyao returns back, but settles on clouds with Mario Barius boxing star-news.press/wp

By the time when the final bell rang, Mani Bacoyao made everything but winning the fighting. He outperformed the opinion, overlooked and outperformed the 16 -year -old champion on Saturday night in Las Vegas, but the performance cards told a different story.

The vibrant Pacquiao returns to the ring after four -year layoffs ended in the majority tie against defending champions Welterweight Mario Barrios. One of the judges registered 115-113 for Baraius, while the other two got it 114-114, allowing Texas, who is 30 years old, to keep his belt with the narrowest margins.

“I thought I won the battle,” said Bacoyao after that. “It was a close battle. My opponent was very difficult. It was a great battle.”

The result with the vibrant Boos was met with the Magm Granden Magm Garden crowd, who spent most of the evening to fly with their support for the 46 -year -old from the Philippines. As for a lot of the match, it seemed to be about to watch the date again.

From the opening round, Pacquiao fought with a sudden urgency, using the corners, the h in the size of his distinctive hand to make up for the height of Barrios and youth and the four -inch access feature. He won in the first frame behind a wave of straight strikes and left, causing loud chants with each landing punch.

Although Barrios began finding a house for his right hands and combating a second, Pacquiao resumed control in the third with a more clear rhythm and faster hands, dictating the pace of work. Barius was released on the sixth hand, then again after a moment with another bullet, it caught in the hero’s field. “On his ability to endure, he can still crack,” Parrius said. “He is still strong like hell. His timing, his rhythm, everything. He was still a very embarrassing fighter to try to discover it.”

Pacquiao’s performance, especially in the sixth to nine rounds, was a feeling of time deformation. He rushed inside and out of the range with fluid foot and mixed into a combination like a half -life man. By the end of the tenth, Bacoyao seemed to advance on performance cards. Even Barius seemed to have admitted that he had to dig deep to close the gap. “It is not necessarily that he was escaping from me,” Parrius said. “I knew that I had to try to get it to win.”

According to his appreciation, Barius did that. It is clear that he won the eleventh, where he got his best mixture from the night and forced Pacquiao a rare sequence of retreat. In the twelfth place, kept on Tempo High, shots and ending strongly – which is enough to sweep the last three rounds on all the three official cards and keep the WBC version of the title on 147 pounds. “I thought I was still taking it out,” Parrius said. “But I am still raising my hat to Mani. It was absolutely an honor to share it in the ring with him, someone with great experience in this sport. We have left everything in the ring. Nothing but love and respect.”

The first Bikwawa battle has been distinguished since its unanimous loss in the decision against Erdlinis Ogas in 2021. It was enlightened in the International Boxing Celebrity Hall last month, and a few expected him to compete again at this level, and much less than that pushes the defending champion to the buses. “I am more experienced,” said Bakoyao. “I am more tactical fighter than before. I’m not neglected as I was when I was young. Now I am more careful.”

This maturity showed in his measured works, selective bangs, and veteran, including moments when he seemed to rule the battle himself. But even Bacoyao admitted that his return camp was transferred. He said, “I only had two months.” “What I have to do is to continue my training. In a battle of a heroism like this, I must train for four months, (or at least) three and a half months. But because of the elections in the Philippines, I started late. But it’s okay. I love the Philippine people, and I love to give my country.”

Pacquiao, whose professional record is now at 62-9-3 with 39 judges, said he “will completely think” in the fighting again and explains that he wants to repeat a match. “Yes, of course,” he said. “This is the only legacy that I can leave behind. To give inspiration to the Philippine people and to be proud wherever you are.”

Barius, who moves the professor’s book to 29-2-2 after the second consecutive clouds, seemed open to the idea. “Certainly. This was huge for boxing,” he said. “And I and I managed to bring them here today, I would like to do it again.”

Four decades of his professional appearance, Pacquiao again proved that age is just a number and that bone, even in a tie, still bears the ability to inspire. “It is a source of inspiration for the ancient boxers,” said Bacoyao. “If you have discipline and hard work, you can still fight. I am very grateful to God, because without God, Mani Bacoyao was not here. God is the source of all the good strength and health that I have now.”
