The Crownless Report presents live coverage of the anticipated showdown between Manny Pacquiao and Mario Barrios, featuring real-time results, round-by-round updates, memorable highlights, pre-fight ring walks, and the scheduled start time for the Pacquiao vs. Barrios boxing event. The event unfolds this Saturday night at the prestigious MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pacquiao, a celebrated figure in boxing history, returns from a four-year hiatus to challenge Barrios for the coveted WBC welterweight title in a surprising turn of events.
Pacquiao (sporting a record of 62 wins, 8 losses, 2 draws, and 39 knockouts) aims to etch his name further into the record books. Should he overcome Barrios, he will become the second-oldest major world champion in the annals of boxing — and the most senior to achieve such a feat in a division below the light heavyweight category. At 46, Pacquiao, recently inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, stands as a unique legend, having secured world titles across eight distinct weight classes. He initially stepped away from the sport in 2021 following a defeat to Yordenis Ugas. Since then, he participated in two exhibition matches, facing DK Yoo and former kickboxing champion Rukiya Anpo, with varying outcomes.
Barrios (with a record of 29 wins, 2 losses, 1 draw, and 18 knockouts) seizes another prominent opportunity following his split draw against Abel Ramos, which took place on the undercard of the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson event last November. As the current WBC welterweight titleholder, Barrios will have a significant age advantage, being 16 years younger than Pacquiao on the night of the fight. Barrios, aged 30, claimed his WBC title with a victory over Ugas in 2023 and successfully defended it twice in 2024 against contenders such as Fabian Maidana and Ramos.
The Pacquiao vs. Barrios event is scheduled to commence at 5:30 p.m. ET. The preliminary bouts are available for viewing via The Crownless Report.
The main card action begins at 8 p.m. ET, broadcast on Prime Video pay-per-view. Anticipate the main event ring walks to occur around 11 p.m. ET.
