Ugas was originally fighting in the undercard and was already training for the event date when he was tapped to step in.

The fight was close early on, but Ugas seemed to have more gas in the latter rounds which led to him running away with the victory late. The fight was scored 115-113, 116-112, 116-112, all in favor of Yordenis Ugas.

The unanimous decision from the judges gives him a career-defining win and sets him up potentially to face the fighter he just replaced in Spence Jr.
