I watched the fight, and I’m on Manny's side that he won 8 of the 12 rounds. He is the more aggressive fighter, and he always starts the engagement. Barrios is a passive fighter, only waiting for Manny to make a mistake.
Manny could have set another record if the judges had made the correct verdict.

Thats a title belt match, I guess the standard to win from a current champ holder needs more than what Manny just did to Barrios. I guess theres a saying that if you want to get the championship belt from a champion, you need to knock him out but Barrios somehow manage not to be overwhelm and somehow fight back. For me the draw result seems fine, this could bring another rematch or new fight for Pacman. But its a good fight indeed.
