Manny Pacquiao against Mario Barrios opportunities, live stream; Ko, Scorecards prediction of the judges

Manny Pacquiao will try to use a new bar for aging world weights on Saturday evening. He is already the oldest fighter who wins the 147-pound title at the age of 40. He tries to reset the bar by six more years.

The biggest question in connection with Pacquiao is whether the time of the ring made him sharp enough to put together another championship performance.

According to him, he feels like a much younger man who comes from the long release.

“I feel excited!” Pacquiao said TMZ. “I mean, I still have the feeling when I was [in my] 20s, at the end of 20, as always. Because boxing is my passion. “

In theory, Pacman's free time gave him the time to rest his body after years of the championship and the marquee fight. A few years in which things are persecuted outside of boxing could have rejuvenated him.

The reality is that he cut his work out for him.

Barrios has become 3-0 since his defeat against Tank Davis. One of these victories unanimously came against Yordenis Ugas. The 30-year-old came into this fight as a considerable outsider and won with a comfortable lead.

Pacquiao, on the other hand, happened to fight against Ugas in his last fight in 2021.

There are different styles to take into account, but Pacquiao already showed the wear of aging and a long career in this fight. The explosiveness, which once made him one of the most dreaded punchers in sports, was gone and his output decreased.

If this will continue to be the case, it is difficult to see that it will be a champion again.

Exciting you to make some rounds, make it a competition battle and even convince a judge that he did enough to win. Just don't expect vintage pacquiao performance.

This is probably a last nice payment day and an opportunity for Barrios to achieve a remarkable victory.
