Jeff Horn may have upset Manny Pacquiao by unanimous decision for the WBO welterweight world title, but Twitter didn’t seem to think so.

Mere seconds after it was announced that Horn knocked off the Filipino legend, social media went into a frenzy.

Here is some of the best reaction.

I don’t think Horn won that fight but at least it was a good one until the decision.

I don't know a whole lot about boxing, but if Jeff Horn won that fight by a unanimous decision, I must have watched a different fight
