      How much overweight was he? And Ugas has been stepping in for over a year and whipping boys.

          This is kind of weird, where the A side fighter gets replaced after the B side comes in overweight. Why wouldn't they just get someone to replace Lara for Barrios to fight? And how much did Lara come in overweight if they're gonna move the fight from 140 to 154? Sucks for Barrios, but nice to see Ugas back in the ring

              Ugas has stepped in late a few times hasn't he? Respect him coming in on a day here. I'd like to see more of this type of late notice stuff.

                      I think Ugas and Barrios have the same manager, so Ugas saved the entire show.

                          Ugas's career has turned out to be a bit of a disappointment. But he wants to work. Gotta respect that. Wish him the best.

                              One of my favorites! I love how Ugas turned his career around and even his earlier losses were close. I hope he gets a title along the way.

                                  War Ugas!
                                  He will fight anyone, anywhere and he comes to win, you can argue that he pulled three upsets in a row.

                                      WTF does he have to do to crack Top 15 in one of these Belt Organizations. Whipping Prospects like Bryant Perrella and Jamal James you would think SOMEBODY would have him rated by now but that is not the case but these Organizations have some of these other fighters rated highly
