    Great video.

    Now that the shock and disappointment of Errol Spence pulling out has mostly settled, Ugas is no joke. He is at worst the #5 guy in the division. He also looks massive, has good speed, and is very technical. And he's Shawn Porter's daddy.

    Some people think Ugas is big enough and strong enough to win in a similar fashion to Jeff Horn.

    You mean by buying off the judges?

    Seriously though, I don't think Ugas will resort to roughing Pac up, he has more boxing finesse in his arsenal than Horn.
    He can impose his size advantage and try to push Pac around, but we all know how Pac deals with that kind of pressure.
    He's better of timing Pac going in and landing a huge shot, he has the power to KO Pac after all.

    Whether by hook or crook Pacquiao should defeat Cuba Uga.

    I'm of course disappointed that we aren't getting Spence-Pac, but I am looking forward to this one. I think this could wind up being a fun and competitive showdown. I too believe Pac should probably win, but I don't think that's a given. Will be interesting to see how he looks compared to his form against Thurman.

    Ugas may be the only guy bigger than Spence in the WW division. Pac should stop fighting these MWs.

    Given the short notice cancellation, an excellent opponent to step in.

    This is a dangerous fight. Cubans are very familiar with southpaw style. They are fundamentally sound. Ugas also beat Porter better than Spence in my opinion.

    There are certain things that Ugas actually do better than Spence like slipping punches. Spence is not good over all at slipping with front and back foot.

    Excellent, insightful video and as a bonus your voice reminds me of Kim Coates.
