[Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match

[Bttzed03]

Judging from others comment, I think's safe to assume Ugas will be a heavy underdog. If it becomes 5 to 1, I'll definitely bet on him

If the fight pushes through, Ugas is pushing his luck too much,

That could be true but why not? He's a fighter after all trying to build a legacy of his own and fighting the best is the only way to do it. Chances like this doesn't come too often and anyone would likely take it. Besides, he earned it.

This will definitely be a great match because both players have reputable records and you can really say that are monsters inside the ring. Based on their previous matches, they are both aggressive and their performance is really great in which you can conclude that they really train so much to achieve every title they are fighting with. There is no specific date released yet about their fight, but I guess it would take place in the first quarter of 2022, maybe around the month of March or April. I'm not really sure, but that's just my lucky guess. Nonetheless, I hope this fight will push through because as we know, there are many fights already that have been postponed or even canceled completely because of conflicts in either the personal lives of the boxers or natural disasters.

In this fight, I think the favor would be in Spence despite his recent operation that caused his fight with Pacquiao to be canceled, still, he can definitely perform in his best version because it's only minor surgery and will not really affect his throwing punches as well as his body coordination. If ever Spence would win, I guess the Spence-Crawford fight would be next on track. But of course, before that, let's hope this Spence-Ugas fight will come into reality first. Really expecting a thrilling and exciting match in this.

If that will be the opening odds, then I will sure ride with you on that.

What Ugas showed against Pacquiao was very impressive, so I think he has a good shot against Spence who is out for a while and Ugas is very hungry to reign although he is not undefeated anymore. Anyone who beat Pacquiao is worth betting for, except on fight where he was cheated.

Hmm, not seeing him that he will be 5 to 1 underdog here, most probably the bookies are going to start with 3 to .

But yeah, as I have said, maybe Ugas can pull an upset so he is a live underdog here.

So for those who love to bet on such odds, this is another perfect opportunity, not huge underdog odds though, but still 3 to 1 or 4 to 1 will be good and attractive enough for me.

No boxers come close to giving Spence a good fight, he is so good in every minute that he is inside the ring, Spence will definitely win this bout, it's not about who wins but if it's going to be a knockout or decision, Spence must show dominance here just like what Crawford showed dominance against Porter, so the Spence - Crawford can happen, it's what the boxing community wants.

[btc_angela]

I read that Ugas is a feared boxer in the 147 lbs and no one wanted to fight him. So maybe this is a step up fight for Spence, and after his surgery it looks like he is back to have another challenge and their belts are on the line.

I do hope that the winner of this will fight Crawford for the unification. Hopefully it will be Spence as the hype has been building up for a Spence vs Crawford fight.

IMO, Ugas doesn't make a feared boxer just because he defeated the boxing champion Manny Pacquiao before the man hangs his gloves. Ugas have just defeated Pacquiao by just a small gap in a unanimous decision. His KO rate is that good compared to Spence Jr.
Same here mate, I'm also rooting for Spence to win, aside from that Spence got the height and reach advantage and also Spence's moves will be enough to take Ugas down. Just my opinion.

It's not because he defeated Manny, but this was given by Shawn Porter itself, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe others is right, it's because of Ugas style and length.

And in paper, the fight seems to be 50:50 at this point. We saw how he defeated Pacquiao with his strengths so this is going to be a good matchup. I don't think Spence will KO Ugas though.

Ugas had a fortunate fight against Manny last time but I guess he could still have the stamina to beat Spence this time. We've seen how wild and aggressive Ugas was. Some might underestimate him but I guess he's too determined to create a good record in this field. Spence is also hard to beat but I must say that this is a strong and perfect match.

Yes, I think this is Spence hardest fight, even harder that Porter I would say. Porter though beat Ugas but it was very close fight.

I don't think that Spence are going to underestimate him, on the contrary, Spence is trying to come back again so it will be another big test for him, coming back and fighting a champion in Ugas. So this fight can go either way and it will be a good fight, with back and forth and no one will be dominant here.

If I'm not mistaken, he has supposedly a fight that got cancelled or has been requesting boxing organizations to give him a fight, hence why he was once said "feared boxer in this division" because no one wanted to fight him, but that is according to him.

But here, his wishes are granted because he will have a crack at one of the best Welterweight in Spence who is coming from an eye surgery, while him upset Manny. So I guess they are even in this match.

Not an easy fight for Spence, We all witness how tough Ugas after that fight against the legendary PacMan, though it's no longer the prime Pacquiao but he still have those solid combos, going back to Spence, he's trying to come back and he needs to win this one to complete what he wanted to accomplished.

This is another fight to watch. Both fighters have the pride and will not give the belt that easy, winner takes all.

That win against Manny is a big thing, and we cannot underestimate Ugas anymore because a silent killer boxer so better for Spence to be more prepared. There’s no final date yet but I’m excited to see this great two boxer fight, let’s see who will be the crowd favorite here when the odds is out.

Ofcourse he still have a good chance of beating Spence.
That fight against Manny wasn't luck or fortunate, Ugas was just too careful and he wasn't even aggressive on that fight, he uses his size and length to take advantage of the old Manny.
That was actually a good strategy.
Now, what's interesting with this fight is that how will Ugas respond or prepared for a much younger and a strong fighter as of the moment than the old Manny.

am guessing, it will still be spence jr but the odds may not be that wide enough. i hope spence jr will not pull out in the last minute. he needs to fight whoever is challenging him not cherry picking and not portraying a coward move. am sure, ugas will be preparing this fight hard. spence jr is younger boxer so he has the stamina to last.
it will be an interesting fight next year, and boxing fans for sure will be excited for this upcoming match.

Ugas beats the legendary Manny Pacquiao why can't he do it with Spence?

Cant be still sure if he would able to take down Spence or on how he would able to handle it out but lets not really trying it to compare because we havent seen Spence vs Pacquiao fight so we cant
really make out some conclusions in between these things but basing off with age and agility and power then i could say that Ugas would really be having a hard time on beating Spence
but if he would make stick on his strategy against Pacquiao where he does have that good defense and good technicality then he might have the chance.

[Silberman]

No date yet according to the articles but 3Belts are at stake.  This wouldn't be easy for Ugas to win against the undefeated Spence for he will give a run for thier money. Ugas only have a slight chance of winning against Spence. In some articles, it's not possible for Spence or Ugas vs Pacquiao anymore because Pacquiao is inactive and so whoever wins the match will fight against Crawford.

They've been speculating of this fight to happen in months, perhaps the date will be next month to feb.

I am happy that we are seeing so many unification fights happen all at once, in the past  many champions avoided each other as it was easier for them to just fight weak challengers and try to extract as much money from their belts as they possibly could, but now boxers are going for all the glory and now they are willing to fight other champions, which is exactly what we as fans wanted as it is easy to speculate who is the best among the current champions in a division, but what better way to determine this with those champions going at each other above the ring.

I believe Errol has a lil bit of regret for not fighting Pacquiao. But yes, there are several factors to consider here and each boxer has their own strengths and weaknesses. I think this fight will fetch a good number of spectators and bettors. This will be one of the boxing matches to look forward to next year. 3 belts are on the line, so whoever wins on this will have his bigger paycheck for his next fight.

The thread has been moved to Off-Topic for I don't know the reason.

Compare to other boxing match speculations, the fight between Errol Spence Jr and Yordenis Ugas is more realistic and likely to happen. That's why it's an interesting subject to discuss with. Almost a done deal and just needs to be finalized. The fight is also expected to happen between March and April. The topic is not involving boxers whose next fight is unsure and will end up in guesses like who's next for Terence Crawford and so.

The fight is not also a typical title match. Several titles are at stake.

I'm all down for Spencer here. I  just hope that the surgery he had on his eye wouldn't affect his performance much and that he'd come back to the ring all ready to go against Ugas. Ugas can fight but between him and Spencer? The difference is quite a margin imo and it's visible to most people I reckon. As long as Spencer does his usual performance plus his eye doesn't act up due to something, pretty sure Spencer would come out on top here.

It's Spence not Spencer. Lol.

I am also for Spence in this match if this will happen. But this could go either way. Ugas has a chance to win but also does Spence. But since I think this will not end in a knockout or a technical knockout, Spence is probably winning this fight in points. This is more likely a unanimous decision for Spence. He is a volume puncher compared to the very technical Ugas which would probably result to more points. And also Spence has got the reach advantage despite their almost equal height.

It's not the first time that a fight is staking 3belts to be unified. I tried googling and found out about Kostya Tszyu vs Zab Judah. Surprisingly, the underdog Kostya won the fight. The result was a real upset which changes the rules in boxing as well when it comes to a boxer who stands up after getting whacked and falls again to the mat. Ugas winning the fight still is possible but the possibility is too low and this is just by looking at his low KO number.

Agreed. In the welterweight division, clearly there are only 2 kings. They are Errol Spence and Terence Crawford. Anyone presently under them will lose. Spence might knockout Ugas within 10 rounds. Also, if everyone is looking a challenger who has a chance to win versus these 2 kings, I reckon it will be Jaron “Boots” Ennis. Everyone remember that name.
