Netizens called out the attention of both ABS-CBN and GMA-7 for using what many called a misleading photo in relation to the boxing fight between Manny Pacquiao and Yordenis Ugas.
Ugas won via unanimous decision 115-113, 116-112, 116-112 to retain his WBA welterweight belt.
The photo used by the two networks showed Pacquiao down in the canvass. It was actually a push made by Ugas and not a knocked down.
Netizens commented that the photo was misleading that might make people think that Pacquiao lost via K.O.
Here are some of the comments:
– “funny nyo. sa dami ng powerful pictures yung nasa floor talaga sya Woman facepalming hirap ba maging proud??”
– “This photo is misleading. Napakaraming photo pwede gamitin bakit eto pa.”
– “totoo naman yan nasa photo dahil tinulak cya ni ugas HND ibig sabihin na knock out cya,,mga tao naman uh,maraming sinabi mali naman ”
– “Ugas use his MMA skill to put manny down. It was not a knockdown. Very misleading photo. You should be ashamed.”
– “Seriously? The photo is misleading. Anyways, win or lose PACMAN is a LEGEND in boxing industry. He’s still a great boxer considering his age.”
