The welterweight division will finally move forward as Errol Spence Jr. and Yordenis Ugas will square off in a fight to unify their titles. In this contest, ’54 Milagros’ Ugas will defend his WBA title, whereas ‘The Truth’ Spence Jr. will put his WBC and IBF welterweight titles up for grabs.

This welterweight title fight is supremely important as the winner will advance to a potential undisputed fight against the WBO champion (Terence Crawford). But when is this contest happening?

Spence Jr. and Ugas’ fight will take place on April 16 at the AT&T stadium, in Texas.

Spence Jr. did not compete for the entire 2021. He was even scheduled to defend his straps against the great Manny Pacquiao.

However, a few weeks before the fight, Spence Jr. ended up with an eye injury and withdrew. Subsequently, Manny Pacquiao went on to face Yordenis Ugas and lost.

With his win, ’54 Milagros’ put himself in pole position to fight fellow champions Errol Spence Jr. or Terence Crawford. ‘The Truth’ remained pro-active and secured this fight. He announced it last month, but it didn’t have a date and venue. Now, that is no longer the case.

Errol Spence Jr. vs Yordenis Ugas – Who has an edge in this fight?

Coming into this fight, the undefeated Errol Spence Jr. will be an obvious favorite. Also, his ultimate aim is to battle Terence Crawford in a mammoth setting. That said, ‘The Truth’ will put forth his A-game to tackle Ugas and look to move ahead to confront ‘Bud’.

The Cuban boxer has enough resilience, and he showed that against Manny Pacquiao. However, his chances of completely outboxing Errol Spence Jr seem slim.
