Here's How You Can Catch Pacquiao vs. Ugas on UPSTREAM
Watch the historic battle from the comfort of your home
One of the long-awaited and biggest non-Olympic sporting events is the upcoming World Boxing Association super welterweight championship between defending super WBA welterweight crown holder and 2008 Cuban Olympian, Yordenis Ugas, and eight-division champion, Manny Pacquiao. The match is happening on August 21, 2021 at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas. That’s August 22, 2021, from 9 AM to 4 PM in Philippine standard time.
Errol Spence Jr. was Pacquiao’s original opponent for the match. However, the athlete suffered from a retinal tear that led to him to withdraw from the fight. Ugas then replaced Spence in the battle, given that he holds the “super” WBA welterweight crown—a title that was initially Pacquiao’s. Ugas got crowned the title after Pacquiao was declared a “champion in recess” because of his inactivity from the sport. Nonetheless, the People’s Champ continues his training to face the Cuban head to head, clinch another victory, and get his title back.
