The eighth loss of his career did not seem like the other seven. Manny Pacquaio He could justify, explain and then wipe these defeats from his mind. Aberrations, each of them. Injury. Destitute preparation. Imprudence. Bad rating. The next time he entered the ring, he knew he could fix it. But the opposite was suffering from his hands Yordenis Ugas Over 12 rounds will be much more hard for the antique master. It was not the most destructive or the most criminal, nor was it the widest deficit he suffered on the results cards. However, he came with something that even Pacquiao will have difficulty refreshing: full stop.

At the age of 42 and after a decade of ups, falls, collisions and triumphs, the descent from Pacquiao, he suggested for the first time when he was involved with Shane Mosley in MGM Grand in 2011, he certainly reached the end of a few hundred meters away at the T-Mobile arena. “In the future you may not see how Manny Pacquiao is fighting in the ring,” he said after two results 116-112 and one of 115-113 (Boxing news Acquiring him 117-111) were announced for an impressive benefit of a Cuban in Las Vegas. “This is boxing. I had difficulties in the adjustment of the ring. My legs were tight, but I did my best.”

Realizing that he did his best, that he trained carefully and was as proficient as possible, he will tell Konitu, everything he must know about the watch that he stuck in us all. From this point it only moves faster.

Ugas’s victory will be marked as nervousness, but he was a live dog. Promoted from a failed card, when Errol Spence Jnr withdrew from an eye injury 10 days earlier, the 35-year-old was perhaps the most high, low delayed substitute, since Vitali Klitschko almost shocked the world champion in heavyweight Lennox Lewis in 2003. Even in the victory, Lewis recognized the same arrest that Pacquiao now. And fans of “Pac-Man”-also sport-to be grateful that it was Ugas, welterweight weight No. 4, not Spence, No. 1, providing it.

In the end, the history of boxing is littered with too many Rabacks aging: Muhammad Ali beaten by Larry Holmes and Trevor Berbick; William Joppy Thrashing Roberto Duran; Jack Johnson plays James J. Jeffries; The depressing fall of Mike Tyson against Kevin McBride; Joe Smith Jnr withdrew from Bernard Hopkins, and 14 years ago Pacquiao himself was afraid of the remains of Oscar de la Hoya. It was not so shocking, but it can be argued that it was equally revealing.

Although more lines are now engraved in his face, and his skin hangs a bit looser, Pacquiao at first glance looked like Pacquiao. Smiling his irresistible smile and showing the figure, which usually looked like a battle, he jumped to the ring on his eminent calves beating socks. But in the middle of the hole, these antique legs made mistakes, emphasizing that something was wrong. Square-on Pacquiao, forced to send as a result of the wrong feet, Pacquiao was compact with his right hand when Ugas cleverly maintained his position in the middle ring. Underdog was highlighting the opponent. This is obviously nothing up-to-date for Manny, but it was obvious that he couldn’t get inside as it used to be. The Kuban peak was shot, his defense was tight. After four rounds, in which the case of winning Pacquiao could only be spent in one of them, his most die -hard fans among 17,000 those present ignored the warning signs.

However, his trainer Freddie Roach tried to act on them. Calling to throw more combinations before the fifth, Pacquaio obediently tried to follow the instructions. Four blows were blocked by Ugasa and threw one of their own. The right hook – just as effective as his straightforward – beat manny and shook him back. Ugas remained composed, his leading hand was busy and almost always related to the goal. Pacquiao ran back, bribed the right glove after swelling, which grew around the same eye, and went again.

Pacquiao could handle his own activity, but he had no ideas. He did what he always did – automating forward, throwing blows – but nothing worked as it used to be. He never looked so indigent in a clamorous fight.

Meanwhile, Ugas was ecstatic to stay in his pocket, using clever leg work and rarely allowing defense. The possibility of using his torn enemy is still coming. Even in the nine, when Pacquiao threatened to get to the top, Ugas defeated his valued rival with two right hands to close the session.

Pacquiao had to win the last three sessions to have a chance at all. But the soles, both due to the effectiveness of the game of coach Ismael Salas and the ineffectiveness of his opponent, probably took them all. Finally, under the right eye, Pacquiao was a cut, another above his left. However, he never stopped trying to find an elusive opening and gave his best to the last bell. Ugasa’s features were also swollen – the same of his own fists, which were locked in his temple when they blocked Pacquiao’s blows when they actually lost.

“I’m sorry,” said Pacquiao, “I lost the fight.”

It does not require an apology from the greatest warrior of his era. He gave this competition and everything he could. It was inevitable that the day would come when so little left.

WBA WAWETREIGHT was detained by UGA and the judge was Russell Mora.

Undercard
In an stimulating duel and a nod to the future, a juvenile Philippine Mark Will – who adored Pacquiao for a long time before he became his stablema – he got up from the floor in the fifth round to knock out Julio Ceja in 10^th. The competition in a featherweight began quickly, when Magsayo, also trained by Roach, shot knocking down in the first three minutes. But his lack of experience cost him when he was exhausting in a exhausting fight. He fell on the fifth with a wild blow to the body, Magsayo did extremely well before he landed with a massive right hand in 10^th This is basically over. The next law sent a ceja-leading 86-83 (twice) and 87-82-down for the full number of judge Kenny Bayless.

Elsewhere both Robert Guerrero AND Victor Ortiz They gave their best, but not under the impression of an stimulating 10-runder. The first one, at the age of 38, proved that there was a little more left when he won close, but a unanimous 10-round decision. The results were 96-94 (three times).

Shades of fury pass the face of Canelo Álvarez. They come and go quickly, the cloud destroys one moment, neat the next one, changing in an instant. After weighing, he rounded the Caleb plant with his gaze burning aggression on the last face, and then turned, almost immediately smiled tenderly at his youthful family and waved happily at the fans legion.

These supporters poured almost exclusively to Las Vegas to celebrate him. If he was energizing, he was focused until the fight, stable, when a crowd sold out around him, over 16,000 forceful, roared with shouts of tiring pleasure. Just setting a foot on the arena at MGM Grand On Saturday was everything Canelo had to do for this mass of fans to hit the deafening fever.

The appearance of the gloomy concentration was taken over by his expression when the first bell freed him to his American opponent, and his face changed again to almost furious satisfaction, when after a demanding, pulsating fight he could finally turn around to take victory and leave the plant on board at 1-05 11.

The plant entered this fight terribly to prove. The quality of an unauthorized warrior never worked at the Canelo level. In his best win he raised the IBF belt from José Uzcátegui. Now he was undoubtedly boxing the global star of this sport. Carnival and chaos of being in the center of the largest program in the city is at the moment the natural Canelo habitat. The plant did not do anything before, and in the brilliant Mexico put him a boxer with the highest caliber, with skills, experience and amazing power.

But a man from Ashland City, a tiny town near Nashville, was more than His boxing record 21-0. In the past, he survived the shocking experiences of his infant daughter, and his mother was killed by a police shooter. For some people, life hits much more than even Canelo álvarez at the peak.

For a man from a fighting city in Tennessee, unknown to world boxing, until the Caleb plant appeared, it could be said that this fight with this antagonist at this stage was an opportunity to create his name. Caleb called it his destiny.

The plant reacted to the crowd of Las Vegas, abandoning her pregnancy that it said: “It is effortless to sit on these seats.” The need to be a man in the ring is much more tough. But Canelo himself did not discourage him. At the first press conference they had a physical quarrel, and the plant did not avoid the six -month suspension of Álvarez in 2018. In the event of an undesirable result of the drug test, although he later said that he was satisfied with the tests of this fight.

Álvarez was in an unusual shape in 168 pounds. In December last year, displacement and container outside Callum Smith within 12 rounds, the 31-year-old left Liverpudlian with a devastated swollen arm. After an effortless victory over Avni Yildirim, he crashed the talented Billy Joe Saunders at the stadium in Texas, setting a attendance record at the American boxing event. In this process he built his popularity, refined his significant skill set even more and gathered three of the four sanctioning body belts. He wanted to complete his collection against plants. What’s more significant, this fight consisted of deciding about the real master of Super Middleight in the world. Canelo is a man with extraordinary determination and he knew that this fight would support him resolve his own place in the history of boxing.

In order for the plant to make such a leap in the classroom, instead of having evidence from the experience of a truly elite achievement to work, Caleb had to rely on pure self -confidence. It wasn’t a bad foundation. He did not have enough tools to win, but it was certainly competitive, especially in the first half of this struggle for the world championship super medium weight.

The concentrated Álvarez observed the plant in the first round. He exerted pressure, developing, but throwing a few blows. However, the plant used its stab, growing and finding opportunities to move through Canelo gloves. He folded well and came, even when álvarez became more and more perilous at the end of the round.

I succeeded that the speed of the plant was perceptible when he shot one or two in the body of Canelo and broke the flashing left up the chin álvarez. His blows flickered on Álvarez, landing when the plant withdrew. But Álvarez still became ahead, closing the plant in a neutral corner and stuck forceful straight hooks towards America. Canelo was not so busy, but he threw his hands with neat power, generating a sigh of the crowd every time he gave up. Plants moved from side to side, changing his direction to prevent him from being pinned by Álvarez. But Mexican diligently folded his body with his left hooks when he reached the range. The American began to feel them. He started slowing down.

In the fourth round, Caleb made a mistake. With his back pressed on the ropes, trying to escape from the right hook, he approached the left. Canelo grabbed and opened it, bombing the plant with the cluster of these more tough shots.

He continued trust in these left hooks, convinced that the investment would pay off later in the competition. He dominated the sixth round, fighting with the well -known confidence. When the plant was worried about the left body hook, Canelo hit his head. He drilled on the right and showed his unique reactions when he slipped into the plant stabbing around.

But in the seventh round, Álvarez softened the pressure on the plant. He stood on the ropes, daring for the American to come for him. Caleb tried to stand, but he was reluctant to take the bait. So Álvarez accelerated his aggression. He went forward, wanting to suppress the movement of the plant. Mighty rights hit the body, and Canelo was still turning in the left hook.

The ninth was round, which the Mexican star predicted that she would find the finish. But it escaped him. He went to the plant, trying to meet his forecast. The American resisted pressure, even working in a sequence of elementary blows, which ended in his proper career.

Canelo’s coach, Eddy Reynoso, had the task to make sure his fee remained on the right track. “The first few rounds were difficult,” said Canelo. “Eddy was the one who calmed me down whenever I got to his corner and became a bit restless, he always told me the right things, held me on my way, held me on the right path, and then the game plan.”

It was also a birthday of Reynoso, but every ceremony would have to wait. “I was a bit frustrated, especially in the first five rounds,” continued álvarez. “The second half of the fight, we imagined so, and eventually we came out with a win. That’s all that really counts. Finally, although the frustration was in the first five rounds, the second part – it was perfect.”

There was a clear difference in power between warriors. Álvarez could land from shots, and his massive hands landed with effect. However, even in the 10th round he could not get the results he wanted with these forceful body rights.

So when the end came, it was suddenly. Canelo has passed a left hook. The impact pushed the head of the plant down, and álvarez found a place for a monstrous upper right upper ass. It woven in the jaw, throwing the plant on his hands and knees. The influence was stunning. When the whole arena fell to his feet, Plant pushed forward and the top, trying to regain balance, but sent he half yoging through the ring. He tried to stay, pulling the gloves and nodding to the judge Russell Mory that he could continue. Canelo was after him, chasing him, completely ruthless. With the next wide -ranging left hook, álvarez shook him badly. He chased the plant to the ropes and was not supposed to escape anywhere. Canelo rolled the right down, sat on the left to set the cross that moved from the side of the plant’s head. Blunt strength fell to the ropes, leaving on canvas.

Canelo turned. He did not have to check the judge like a second look to know that the fight was won. At the time of the triumph, Álvarez ran in the ring and jumped onto the corner post, shaking his fist in the air as the arena exploded around him. It was spectacular close to the program.

“It was a really historic night and I am very proud that I am part of it,” said Álvarez later. “Connection [with his fans] I’ve always been there and I am really content and I am very content that Mexican fans can come and witness a fight and share success with me. “

The plant will be taken to the hospital as a precaution, but first it talked to Canelo immediately in the ring. Bad blood from a press conference, when the plant called it a cluster ** ker, was put aside. Canelo said later: “After the fight he told me he wanted to fight, he wanted to continue, and also apologized to me and what he said about my mother – he did not mean this and I was really sorry and I told him,” All right, he was water under the bridge. ” I told him he was a great man – said álvarez. “We don’t have to draw anything from the Caleba plant. He is a great warrior, a great boxer, he made a great effort.

“We are people and we want the best for ourselves in the sport in which we have to hurt. We are people, and what is happening in the ring in the ring.”

Aftewards, Álvarez stood on the podium for the last audience in the media. Pro at the age of 15, currently a veteran of 60 professional attacks, has been confirmed as a world leader in sport. It is a position that will be questioned in the coming years, maybe earlier than we thought. But now it’s at the top. “I love boxing so much,” he said. “Just like now as 16 years ago. I have never lost my discipline, this passion and I am here.”

He spoke like a state husband. Around his right eye was a bit slightly bruises, the only signs left on him after the fight. It was imperceptible from afar. With a last smile, the master could leave the stage. His face was dazzling again.

Verdict Álvarez is at the top of sport and the peak. But it will remain there is never effortless.

Sometimes we need to remind you why we like boxing so much. When we return home from the arena after a great fight, but we are not able to sleep because of the drama we witnessed. It was one of those nights in Madison Square Garden’s Hulu Theater on Saturday, when Aussie George Cambosos Jnr opposed the opportunities and won the world delicate title, beating the very favorite Teofimo Lopez with a divided decision. Lopez, who constantly uses the party line “takeover” in the description of his career, not only lost the championship, but lost his position among the best fighters in sport.

Teofimo bitterly complained about the decision that he won 10 out of 12 rounds, a claim so absurd that he did not deserve an answer. The actions of Teofimo Lopez Snr, who serves his son as the main trainer, were also doubtful. Instead of being with junior in the moments before the fight, the senior was in the ring, calling on the crowd. What’s more, an hour earlier, he was seen outside the place, a meeting and welcoming fans.

Lopez, from Las Vegas, but fighting with Brooklyn (from where he was before), he fired in the opening round, trying to make him predict his knockout in the first round. But as fatal as his blows looked like, few passed. Cambosos moved wisely and curled up with the blows, and then began to fire. 15 seconds remained in the round Cambosos that it sensationally supplied the right hand shock, firmly dropping Lopez. Lopez got up quickly, but he had to be shocked by the sequence of events.

The support of the crowd took place with Lopez through the second and third rounds, but a bit quit in the fourth, when Cambosos took control. He effectively enlisted from stab and stopped Lopez’s shoot, meeting him in the middle ring. This is not intimidated, Cambosos chose his places, going to his fingers, trying a knockout.

Lopez’s left eye was cut out of the fourth round. When the competition moved to his face injuries, he became more clear. The improvement of the injury was a mocking mocking from Cambosos. The pretender’s fights had joy. And why not? He made a huge advantage for seven rounds. Cambosos’ body language also told this story. But Lopez increased in eighth place. His body attack was effective. At that time, in the ninth Cambosos, he temporarily seemed to be somewhat, but he fought with trouble.

It seemed that Cambosos was solved at 10. that his heritage would take place a pretender for the game, who fought above expectations before the reality appeared. Lopez, it seemed that he intended to do what he and the opponents predicted. A couple of rights ached by Australian and fell. Cambosos got up, crossed the ring, trying to shake off the effect of blows. There is a lot of time left in the round. Judge Harvey Dock looked like he was thinking about stopping. But Cambosos showed no additional signs of anxiety. Lopez’s attacks slowed down and his chance disappeared.

Cambosos dominated 11 .. Medics checked Lopez’s cuts and bruises, which made him look much worse than his opponent, who had blood from his left eye. 12 was close. Two judges won him for Lopez, but Cambosos was more effective in thwarting what came back.

Boxing news He had 114-112 for Cambosos, which was the result of a consensus in the media section in the ring.

Glen Feldman and Frank Lombardi Judges had 115-112 and 115-111 for Cambosos, respectively. Don Trella did not agree, winning 114-113 Lopez. Both Feldman and Trella won only the first round of 10-9 Cambosos, apparently feeling that Lopez had a clear advantage until they were dropped at the end.

Lopez, who is only 24 years elderly, can come again if he learns about ample lessons offers here. But his place in the order of pecking decreases. Why would Devin Haney still constantly challenge him after this loss? And not Vasiliy Lomachenko Now it is believed that he is more attractive with Cambosos, the world champion than he would be able to revenge Lopez? Whether we see Teofimo at a delicate point again is another point to consider.

28 -year -old Cambosos had a great night and fought with a great fight. He says that he will continue to mow straight through a delicate, delicate ward. You should deal with it. You rarely see a warrior with such robust faith in yourself as Cambosos. And it was the same faith, more than his ring knowledge, which played the greatest role in his victory.

Japanese Kenichi Ogawa enters the ratings in the weight of the Super-Feather after conquering the unanimous 12 round over the South African Azing Fuzile. Judges John McKaie and Robin Taylor had it 115-110, Steve Weisfeld 114-111. Bn He had it 116-109 for the fire. Ron Lipton was about the free IBF belt.

The turning point took place in the fifth round when the law dropped Fuzile. After this, the fire was emboldened and aggressively tried to perform for the rest of the road.

At the right eye, the ninth of Fuzile and nose were bleeding, and the fight disappeared. He could no longer afford to locate and counteract. He paid the price in the middle of the 12th, when the law forced him to leave. Then, with the remaining seconds, for the third time it was dropped in the match, the bell saved him from failure at a distance of the distance.

Ramla Ali from Greenwich is impressed, winning the fourth place in so many starts against Twardy California, Isaiah Vera. Ali was initially a bit restless, but then she began to combine her strokes, showing nice leg work. Judges John Basile, Kevin Morgan and Waleska Roldan scored four round 40-36 for Ali. Lipton.

Verdict Do not listen to Lopez, the victory of Cambosos was richly deserved.
