Ugas posted 3 days ago on insta, sparring a southpaw

[SweetPbfAli]

Ugas was probably told a week ago he’d be replacing Spence.

The injury obviously didn’t literally happen yesterday.

Some rational! Just because we just found out doesn't mean there weren't communication within the PBC that Spence may have to pull out of the fight. They probably hit Ugas team up and told them to be ready to step in, hence sparring a southpaw.

But hey, maybe Haymon planned the whole thing which requires a lot of moving parts, especially agreement of Spence, who's never pulled out of a fight before and has been calling for this fight for years. He fought Danny Garcia coming off of a life threatening car accident and long ass inactivity. I think his character has earned him the benefit of the doubt.

Ok so other than 3 days ago, you have no proof to back that statement up. Just wanted to clarify.

Would Ugas be the only fighter that ever sparred with someone who led with a different hand?

For example, Porter is a regular sparring partner for Manny, whether the opponent is orthodox or southpaw.

What? Porter sparred for Manny for the Cotto fight. There’s no other article or mention of them sparring after that.

Spence was diagnosed on Monday. Fabian is the one that got cut yesterday.

Actually, Manny hired Porter again to prepare for the Mosley fight

I thought he was a regular sparring partner for Manny and that is why they will never fight .

I'm wondering how long Ugas has been preparing for Pacquiao. Especially since Pac only has less than two weeks to train for Ugas. B.S. all around.

When Canelo-Plant was looking likely.
