Improved Referee Set to Officiate Pacquiao-Barrios Fight
On July 19, 2025, none other than the renowned boxing referee, Thomas Taylor, steps into the ring for the epic showdown between Manny Pacquiao and Mario Barrios at the MGM Grand Garden, Las Vegas, USA.
Thomas, known as one of the crème de la crème in the refereeing circle, gets the nod for this highly anticipated brawl, primarily due to his reputation for fair play and expertise.
Pacquiao, inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame this month, returns to the ring for his first bout in eight years, breaking his retirement stretch.
