Manny Pacquiao is all set to head back to the ring and make his long-awaited bout against Errol Spence Jr. However, it won't be Spence facing Pacquiao anymore.

As Eric Woodyard of ESPN reports, Yordenis Ugas is going to fight Pacquiao after Spence withdrew from the fight due to a retinal tear in his eye.

So, instead of Spence fighting Manny, it will be WBA Welterweight champ Yordenis Ugas, and Pacquiao will now have to pivot and prepare for an entirely different opponent just two weeks away from the fight in Las Vegas.

Pacquiao took to Twitter, classy as always, and wished for a speedy and quick recovery for Spence from his injury.

 

If this is the end of the storied career for legendary fighter Manny Pacquiao, he definitely wants to come out on top and walk away from the sport with a victory at its highest stage, and the anticipation of the Spence-Pacquiao bout was a big one.

But, Manny Pacquiao against Yordenis Ugas should still be a terrific battle as Ugas is the Welterweight champ. The fight is scheduled for August 21 in Vegas and is going to go on as planned, just with a different opponent than before.
