Yordenis Ugas has dealt with bigger things in life than having 35k fans screaming against him at Cowboys Stadium.
He told BSO that should worry Errol Spence Jr.
“I’m excited and ready to fight in front of a great fan base on Saturday night here in Dallas. Spence is a respectful fighter and we have nothing against each other outside of the ring, I’m just ready for action.
“I’m a competitor, I’m a warrior and I came to fight 12 rounds strong. That’s the most important thing of all. That alone should make Spence uneasy.
“I know I’m the underdog. I came here to win. I will fight whenever, wherever, in anybody’s backyard.
“Spence can say whatever he wants. I’ll fight the way I always do, exchanging blows and coming forward.
“I’ve always been an underdog – six years ago and now, I’m used to it. Spence is the rightful favorite as a unified champion in his home city, but I came here to pull off the upset.
“I want all of Cuba to know that I fight for them with all my heart and soul, and I will do just that on Saturday night.
Ugas says he plans to meet Spence right in the middle ring.
We might not get a knockout, but I would be shocked if we didn’t get a knockdown.
Ugas knows to take the belts from the A-side in his hometown, he can’t just win, he has to dominate.
The fight has big-time repercussions as an undefeated fight with Bud Crawford is looming in the fall for the winner.
There is no word if Bud will be in attendance, but I get the feeling he will show up to let his presence known and don’t be shocked if that fight is announced immediately or shortly after this fight.
