"Last night I spent the whole morning in the hospital and I am writing these words with only one eye, the other still closed."

"But it was very important for me to write it for you," continued Ugas.

"I want to thank and thank my family, my team, and everyone who supported me. I want to congratulate Errol Spence Jr, a great champion...and to share the ring with him is an honor, he came like [ usually], always strong, and in the last round he hit me in the eye and things got more difficult...the best win in the ring."
