WBA welterweight title 2021

‘End of a legend?’ Manny stunned by ‘puzzle’ he ‘couldn’t answer’ in boxing boilover

Pacquiao had admitted in the lead-up to the fight that he was unsure if it would be the last of his career.

The 42-year-old looked a very different version of himself to the own that fought Keith Thurman, struggling to deal with Ugas’ counter game.

It was not just Ugas’ jabs that gave him the advantage though with his right hand too troubling Pacquiao all night.

“It was a hard time, making an adjustment about his style and I think that was the problem for me because I didn’t make an adjustment,” Pacquiao said post-fight.
