Errol Spence Jr. He opened at one of the strangest moments from his clash of the unification of the welterweight in 2022 with Yordenis Ugas – and it had nothing to do with the blows.

Over the years, Spence conducted intensive dental work after a stern car accident in 2019. The disaster almost ended his career.

Discussing the damage to the lips during all the smoke before returning to his return in 2020 towards Danny Garcia, “Truth” revealed that the dental surgeon placed three false teeth.

“I have no restrictions in the training except sparring,” said Spence Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. “I can’t pair because I knocked out my teeth. And they put two posts in my mouth, well, three posts in my mouth.

“I am waiting for them to heal. And when they healed, I will get my enduring teeth. And then I will be able to pair.”

Responding to the social media who asked the fans, which they think happened in the strange exchange of the sixth round, Spence recognized the confusion himself.

“I had a recent prosthesis, I stumbled and thought that my dentures fell out with a mouthpiece,” Spence said. “Almost, master. I hope you were good.”

At the viral moment in question, Spence stopped in the middle of the fight, seemingly confused. The incident led to a ponderous shot, while Spence looked at the canvas. The judge briefly stopped the action a few seconds later.

At that time, many fans questioned Spence’s consciousness, but the United Master now revealed that it was not just a mouthpiece – he temporarily believed that his prostheses also fell out.

Surgeons did not fully secure the prosthesis, which means that Spence could move them to Wola.

Ugas signed a video: “Tell me what you thought at this moment. Give me your opinion. Debate. I read you.”

Genial Exchange adds a layer of context to a brutal battle in a world title with high rates, which has drawn a lot from both warriors.

Spence would stop in the tenth round, uniting WBC, IBF and WBA welterweight titles.

Terenka Crawford then took all three lanes from Spence fifteen months later.
