Josh Peter, USA Today: Barrios from TKO in the 10th

Peter writes: “Mario Barrios is the ideal opponent for Manny Pacquiao because Barrios' aggressive style and faulty defense make him susceptible to the creative combination of Pacquiao. Perhaps he minimizes other important problems. Barrios will be 6-0 with 6: 0. It would be great to have Pac-Man back for more than one fight, but not counted on it.”

Brent Brookhouse, CBS Sports: Barrios from Ko

Brookhouse writes: “We speak of a 46-year-old man who went back from retirement and who was after his career after the first time. Pacquiao looks in great form, but translates that it is a success against a younger fighter. It will be a time when Pacquiao is either stopped or his team has to stop the fight for him.”

Anatoly Pimentel, BetMGM: Pacquiao by unanimous decision

Pimentel writes: “I expect Pacquiao to go out everything in the first six rounds of the game because he did this against Thurman before the first setback. This knockdown was crucial in the judges' scorecards, which helped him to win the shared decision. As barquios, who should devote himself to the fight against the fight against the hashing, the Haspit.

Punch as hard as always. Show impressive speed. In good condition.

The reports by Manny Pacquiaos training camp about the 46-year-old boxer shine. But it is still too early to know what that means, said Chris Algieri, the former WBO junior world champion in the world weight, who organizes co-moderator of ppv.com chat from ppv.com during the fight.

“We have an old saying in boxing,” said Algieri, who was put down six times by Pacquiao in a unanimous loss of decision in 2014. You have a 46-year-old brain that has not made any strokes for four years. That could play an important factor. ''

When Manny Pacquiao turns out to be as good as the reports of his training camp, the former WBO junior world champion in the Welterweight Chris Algieri has identified some key factors in Pacquiao's fight against Barrios.

Algieri suggests that too much is made over the climax of the 6-0 barrios over the 5-5 ½ Pacquiao. “He liked to fight bigger fighters,” said Algieri. “I was one of them, Oscar de la Hoya, Antonio Margarito. He dominated all three. ''

In addition, according to Algieri, Barrios are happy to exchange strokes and give “hits”. ''

“I think Barrios would be tailor -made in Manny's Prime, but we are not dealing with Manny in his heyday,” added Algieri. Barrios, he has the length, he has the youth, he has the strength (and) he has very good foundations. ''

Manny Pacquaio retired after his defeat against Yordenis Ugas by unanimous decision in 2021. However, after Pacquiao lost in his Senate race in the Philippines, he retired against Mario Barrios for the WBC Welterweight Championship. It will be his first fight since the defeat against Ugas.

Keith Thurman, the former world champion in the world weight, received a unique insight into the Matchup of World Heritage Light between Manny Pacquiao and Mario Barrios, who were on Saturday, July 19.

He did it by getting into the ring with both men.

Thurman went 12 rounds with Pacquiao in 2019 and suffered a loss of split decision. In 2022 he went with Barrios 12 rounds and won through unanimous decisions.

But the only man who knocked him down was Pacquiao who dropped Thurman in the first round. Of course, that's his choice to win the fight, right?

Well, not quite.
