Pacquiao ruined Spence-Ugas clash, says Cuban champ

Little did most of us know that Errol Spence Jr. and Yordenis Ugas are rivals. They was
supposed to meet inside the ring as both champions earlier this year but it was
cancelled as Manny Pacquiao came back to sport.
Spence chose the living legend as opponent but eventually, with only more than a week
remaining, he pulled out due to an unexpected eye injury.
Ugas, who was left out, is now the one who will face the eight-division world champion
with the WBA welterweight belt on the line.
“Before I talk about my next fight, I want to pay a word of respect to Spence,” pointed
out Spence. “It has been four years of rivalry, and finally, this year, we were going to
fight,” he said.
“Pacquiao came back and ruined the fight, but he was happy for you. It’s because I’m
sure you were going to win and take the name of a great legend.”
But despite taking shots of the ruined fight, Ugas sent his well-wishes and respect to the
unified welterweight champion.
“I have been a great fan of yours, and I have seen with joy how you have become a
great star.
“Just two years ago, I and many of us were here praying for your life, and you came
back from the dead to remain a champion. I’m sure you’re going to come back from this
injury too.
“I have the biggest fight and the most dream of any fighter who steps into a gym. But I
can’t finish my career without fighting you. God bless you. Recover champion. Respect,”

Tyson Fury's Dad sets constraints on the AJ-Fury rematch

The “Gypsy King” Tyson Fury (33-0-1) is set to rematch with two-time former unified world heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua (26-3-0) next year but Fury’s dad pushes Joshua vs Wilder first.

Deontay Wilder, “The Bronze Bomber” (43-2-1), former WBC heavyweight champ, is the first American world heavyweight champ since 2007. He defended his title for 10 times.

But, Wilder lost to Fury twice after their trilogy last October 9, 2021 in an eleventh round KO.

John Fury blurted to The Daily Mail that many boxers are ducking Wilder because they are afraid of him. He added that only his son defeated Wilder twice yet he praised the latter’s power.

As of this writing, the said rematch is still unclear however, DAZN reported last September 23, 2023 that promoter Eddie Hearns got an venue offer to stage the fight next year.

Nikola Jokic, Lebron James will kick off the NBA 2023-24 season.

The unfinished business between the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Lakers will resume on October 24, 2023 in Ball Arena Denver, Colorado.

It can be recalled that the Nuggets swept the Lakers in the Western Conference. Shockingly, they advanced to their very first NBA Finals in franchise history with 4 – 0 in the Western Conference Finals.

“I know how great he is,” James said in the press conference last May 2023 about Jokic.

Jokic won MVP of the Western Conference Finals after he exploded with 27.8 points, 14.5 rebounds and 11.8 assists.

On the other hand, Lebron James felt humiliated with a sweep loss though it is not his first time to be swept. James got swept also last 2018, when his Cavaliers clashed with the Golden State Warriors.

Meanwhile, Lebron is expected to erupt vs the Nuggets.

Crawford no match to Canelo at 168 – GGG coach

Gennady Golovkin (GGG) former coach Abel Sanchez presumes that Terrence Crawford is no match to Mexican pound for pound king Canelo Alvarez at 168 lbs.

In an interview by Fight Hub TV last October 9, 2023, GGG coach said that Canelo vs Crawford is laughable.

Sanchez is a Mexican-American trainer and coach of Gennady Golovkin who is the real rival of Canelo.

Undefeated and undisputed welterweight champion Crawford (40 – 0) has defeated his rival Errol Spence jr. last July 29, 2023 but still not enough to win vs Canelo.

It can be recalled that both Crawford and Spence Jr. have been craving to fight the Mexican superstar but to no avail.

When asked if Crawford can win vs Canelo, Sanchez said: “He [Crawford] gets beat. So, in my opinion, that’s not a good fight.”
