The World Boxing Organization revealed its re-scoring on the Manny Pacquiao and Jeff Horn welterweight title fight, and still favors the Aussie boxer over Pacman.

In the said recount, five anonymous, competent judges from different countries were asked to watch the bout without sound.
“Then, the independent results were tabulated to ascertain clearly the rounds each fighter won using an average scale based on 60, 80 and 100 per cent. To determine the winner of each round, 3 out of the 5 officials have to be in agreement,” WBO pointed out.
According to WBO judges’ analysis, Pacquiao won the 3rd, the 8th and 9th by 100%; the 5th round was won by 80%; and the 11th round by 60%.
Unfortunately, the findings stated that Horn had much advantage over Pacquiao by winning 1st, 6th and 12th rounds by 100%; rounds 2nd, 4th, and 7th by 80%; and then, the 10th round by 60%.
“From the results, it can be established that Pacquiao won 5 rounds while Horn won 7 rounds,” the WBO statement read.
As the next step of the game analysis, the independent judges, together with the actual bout judges named Waleska Roldan, Chris Flores, and Ramon Cerdan, found the percentage agreement by round. This findings stated that Pacquiao won the 3rd and 9th by 100%; the 8th round was won by 87.5%; no rounds were won by 75%; the 5th round by 62.5%; and the 10th and 11th were even rounds.
With this, judges claims that Horn won the fight as he got the 1st, 6th, and 12th rounds by 100%; by 87.5%, he won the 4th and the 7th; the 2nd was won by 75%; none were won by 62.5%; and the even rounds were the 10th and the 11th.
