Manny Pacquiao Jeff Horn

The unanimous decision that gave Jeff Horn a shocking win over Manny Pacquiao in Brisbane on Sunday was met with outrage from most sports fans who watched the fight.

Pacquiao seemed to dominate and even outlanded Horn 2-to-1 on punches, yet all three judges had Horn winning things, including one who scored it 117-111 in favor of Horn.

Take a look at these stats and tell me if the judges got something wrong:

That's the kind of thing that hurts boxing's reputation. Literally nobody except the judges in Australia had Jeff Horn winning.
