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

[harizen]

What: Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match
When: April 16, 2022
Venue: AT&T Stadium , Arlington, Texas.

RESULT: Spence Jr. wins via 10th round TKO

Supposedly, it was Yordenis Ugas Ugas against Eimantas Stanionis but the latter step aside made it possible for the former to now get his original request. That request is not possible to happen if he losses against Pacquiao last August. And now that WBA approved the fight, it was now set on 1st quarter next year.

As we know, Errol Spence Jr. didn't push through to a fight against Pacquiao because of an eye issue that needed surgery. Instead of postponement, Ugas stepped in as a replacement. Maybe if only Pacquiao won't be busy in the election next year, they can delay that fight as it was only a few months waiting more for Spence to be cleared of fighting.

Moving forward, Ugas' career is going nowhere until he wins against Manny. Fighting against Spence is a big opportunity for him. Let's wait for more updates. I will give a 70% chance that this fight will push through.

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.

Every game had it's own strategy and stamina. For boxing people need huge stamina and will power till the end of Game. In boxing, game may change at the end also. Pacquiao is my favorite player in this two. The game will be change his carrier towards boxing. The impressive move by Pacquiao was unique with him in all his game. Very eager to see this match. Can't wait till the february or next month.

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.

If the fight pushes through, Ugas is pushing his luck too much, he is lucky to win against Pacquiao where Pacquiao is the heavy favorite, I don't think he can push he is fighting a guy who is considered to be the best in his division, only Crawford can match his power, if the fight push through Spence will be the heavy favorite here, he is the hard puncher and he has good ring generalship against Ugas.

Not really pushing some luck, he is pushing his career. You actually sounded like he stands no chance against Spence and that he's something that isnt professional in this field. He actually fought a good fight against Manny strategically. We may find it a boring fight because Ugas was being extra careful from the beginning to the last. He utilizes his length very well. I don't know what else Ugas are capable of, one thing that is for sure he didn't win against Manny with just "luck", he out smarted Manny by using his length.
Now, I guess this will be an interesting fight and maybe the most important fight for Ugas after defeating Pacman. Yes, Spence is a different breed of fighter, but I don't want to underestimate a fighter who defeated a legend.

So by next year, we can expect that Errol Spence Jr is back healthy again after the operation?

This is great news, I'm sure we won't have this discussion if Spence is not capable of fighting again.
Ugas is in big trouble here, he is fighting a stronger and a younger champion, so I like to see how he will respond after his success against Manny.

[Questat]

This is more exciting as it's a unification fight. I'm pretty sure that it's a bigger fight than Crawford vs Porter fight as we will be seeing both champions trying to unify their belt. I love the courage of Ugas because he does not back down against anyone, and I think after what he showed against Pacquioa, he had a shot here to beat Spence as he is the more active fighter and Spence came from a delicate operation.

[Shamm]

Errol Spence Jr Vs Yordenis Ugas is the most awaiting fight in the world of boxing,  cause we all know that they are both good record in the welterweight division.

I agree with this supposedly Errol Spence Jr vs manny but for some reason space can't fight so ugas take the opportunity and then he win that match.
For this matchup this a perfect both fighters are good and strong enough to defend their belt.

Would you say Ugas can win?

Odds will really be in favor of Errol Spence for sure at 3 to 1 for speculators will always look at Spence having no loss and overwhelming fans. Seems a less risky bet for us. Spence had defended his title 5 times while Ugas is not the very high class. Although Ugas does have some notable opponents, their fights mostly ended in Decisions.

It should be, but the injury is serious... I hope if he's back healthy again, he can perform very well.

Ugas was have a height advantages against Pacquiao before, but Spence is more high than Ugas even it's little difference only. Spence's has a good record and still undefeated, of course he will be favorited here. I'll wait the odds when the bookies add this match (if it's happen) Ugas has a good defense, he wouldn't let Spence knocking out him.

I still bet Crawford as the best fighter in the current welterweight division even Pacquiao still on the reigns before and I rank Spence as next to him.

At this time, I'll be expecting Spence will be the winner, I still cannot see any potential from Ugas even his last winning fight on Pacquiao, it will be the upset fight of the year if he win on this fight IMO.

On the other side, Spence vs Crawford will be the most hyped fight we ever can see on this weight division, both undefeated and a unification 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.

Maybe Ugas style is very difficult, so it's a stylistic match up for anyone, even Porter have a hard time in defeating Ugas (but there are those who says that Ugas won that fight).

But in any case, I will still go with Spence here, he has all the tools to match Ugas style. It will be close but I don't see Ugas pulling a big upset in the 147 lbs.

I also disagree about Ugas being called feared boxer, he doesn't sell fights and that's why the division doesn't want to fight him. And I would say that he is a no name in the welterweight until he defeated Manny Pacquiao.

So now everyone is chasing him because he has the belt and one of the weakest champion in this division, just saying. But he will be making good money right now in this fight.

We already saw how Ugas works to defeat his opponent by using his reach and amazing speed that could upset his opponent if they don't know how to destroy his defense. But if it's Spence, I'm sure he can do that because he is still young and still in his prime.

This is the best way to promote their fight because both of them are now the best fighters to step in the ring against each other and the winner will be a good match-up for Crawford.

I think Spence still has the edge here in speed, haven't check the tale of the tape, but as far as reach goes maybe they are all even in that department. And Spence is more cerebral fighter, he can beat you in your own game.

This is the best way to promote their fight because both of them are now the best fighters to step in the ring against each other and the winner will be a good match-up for Crawford.

Right, winner should really try and get a unification bout with Crawford. It's easy to be made because Crawford is a free agent now.

In the Pacquiao-Ugas fight, its also Pacquiao who is in favor when it comes to odds so those who put their bets against him are the ones who got the victory.
Its also possible that it might happen here and TBH, we might see an upset here and knowing that Spence just came out of an eye injury it might be a bit of a hindrance to him at least.
Its supposed to be Spence and Pacquiao to fight but because of unexpected turn of events its Ugas-Pacquiao and now that Ugas won that fight, he wants to get the other belts. Its my first time to watch Ugas fight and he's quite strong but with this match, Spence has a 3 cm reach advantage. Still, its hard for me to predict who will be the victory here since Spence just came out of injury and that might be a problem for him. Whoever won this fight has a chance to fight Crawford.

[Saisher]

Ugas is nowhere in the contention as the best welterweight, it's only between Spence and Crawford, Crawford and Spence can easily beat Ugas because he is not an extraordinary fighter compared to the two other welterweight champions, but he is making big bucks for holding the other version of the title and fighting Spence, Spence is going to be a heavy favorite here.

[Wexnident]

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.

Maybe if only Pacquiao won't be busy in the election next year, they can delay that fight as it was only a few months waiting more for Spence to be cleared of fighting.

Yeaaa I doubt that. He's probably gonna be a tad bit busy and he's pretty much considered to be inactive in the boxing scene no?
