Manny Pacquiao's return to the ring at the weekend after a four-year hiatus marked the latest example of a boxer well past his prime who could not resist the temptation of the squared circle and a chance to add to his competitive legacy.

Emmanuel "Jimuel" Pacquiao's boxing debut will be coming at a later date, rather then right before his father's return to the ring.

Thurman spoke about this during a July 19 interview with FightHype, where he said that he bet $500 for the fight to be a draw, and ended up earning $8,000 in profit as a result. And he pulled out the winning betting slip to prove it, showing it to the camera.

Saturday's scorecards robbed Pacquiao of a legendary win befitting a legendary career. They also stole from him something more precious — time.

Manny Pacquiao's bid to break his record as boxing's oldest welterweight champion was foiled in Las Vegas by a majority draw against Mario Barrios that ended his four-year retirement.

But Pacquiao, in the end, fell just short on the judges' scorecards as Mario Barrios escaped with a majority draw to retain the WBC welterweight championship. Two judges scored the bout a draw, and judge Max DeLuca awarded Barrios a 115-113 victory. The Associated Press scored the fight 115-113 in favor of Pacquiao.

Given the circumstances, Manny Pacquiao may have turned in one of his best performances, but it wasn't enough to earn victory over Mario Barrios.
