Errol Spence Jr 'breaks Yordenis Ugas’ orbital bone' in stoppage win

Saturday night’s 10th round stoppage saw Errol Spence Jr complete a perfect comeback, defeating Yordenis Ugas by virtue of a ghastly swollen eye.

Coming off a 14-month hiatus, Spence (28-0, 22 KOs) lit up an exuberant AT&T Stadium and unified his WBC and IBF titles with Ugas’ WBA belt in the process.

Ugas (27-5, 12 KOs), who famously stunned Manny Pacquiao in 2021, also played his part in a pulsating encounter in Arlington, Texas.

Spence largely contained Ugas with combinations of heavy punches in the first five rounds, but the Cuban took the fight to his much-fancied opponent with a spirited response in Round 6.

The 35-year-old unleashed a flurry of shots with his right hand, which dislodged Spence’s mouthguard and left him staggering.

Spence has never been knocked down in his professional career and he did well to maintain his footing on this occasion.

The Cuban was perhaps unfortunate that referee Laurence Cole chose to afford Spence the opportunity to clean his mouthguard just as he looked to have his opponent on the ropes.
