Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs. Ugas Set For August 21 - Spence Withdraws With Eye Injury

This year keeps getting worse for boxing. Absolutely stinks

[Boxing56]

Damn. I knew this would happen.

If I was Pacquiao. I wouldn’t let WBA make a dime off me.

[THE REED]

Damn, he tore his retina???? That's awful news, potentially for his career.

Man this sucks. Being a boxing fan just feels like getting let down over and over.

Hope Errol can recover. Scary injury for a boxer.

At this stage of Pac’s career, Ugas is a risk you probably shouldn’t take. I hate to sound like a businessman when talking boxing but c’mon it’s Manny. What’s left to prove. A Ugas fight can only hurt his legacy. Could you blame him if he pulled out and waited for a bigger name. I mean the difference in PPV buys in a Spence fight vs a fight with Ugas is probably night and day.

And for the record I’d love to see Ugas against all the other top WWs and prospects (Spence, Crawford, Thurman, Danny, Porter rematch, Boots, Ortiz). But it just feels like he should beat one of them before facing the legend.

At this moment - and I hope I'm wrong - I'm envisioning a relatively uneventful 12-rounder with hands touched at the end of every round. Remember Pacquiao vs Mosley.

non sense fight for the legend manny

The one big fight people wanted to see in 2021 actually got signed.

But then this sht happens.

Hope Spence gets better, this really sucks.

This is the worst boxing year in recent memory, worse than 2016.

So this dude was walking around with a ruptured retina like nothing was wrong with him?!? He probably fought Danny with it. What a warrior man. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

[KTFOKING]

Dang just after I dropped my prediction in your thread too.

So let's blame you for jinxing the fight!!!!! Lol.

Pac should pull out too why fight ugas its not like he needs the belt for leverage

Let Porter Crawford fight and face the winner in December at least they are a name worth ending your career on
