JAKARTA - Manny Pacquiao failed to win the WBA Super welterweight world championship belt (66.6kg) after losing points against Yordenis Ugas at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Saturday or Sunday Indonesian time.
In the 12-round duel, the three judges in charge scored 116-112, 116-112, 115-113 for Ugas' victory.
Launching Antara, since the match bell rang, Pacquiao dominated the first three rounds. Just like the previous fights, this Filipino boxer never backs down to hit his opponent.
On the other hand, Ugas kept looking for an opening to land a punch. However, in the fourth round, Ugas actually received a warning from referee Russell Mora for several times he hit too low.
From the fourth round, Pacquiao continued to throw punches. Likewise with Ugas, so buying and selling blows is unavoidable.
