Errol Spence Gets the TKO Victory Over Yordenis Ugas and Calls Out Terence Crawford
Errol Spence and Trainer Derrick Jamese.g. Instagram. AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, held one of the year's best fights with Errol Spence jr. and Yordenis Ugas. Spence got the TKO victory in round 10 after dominating Ugas after round 1. Spence's first round was rough, but he made some adjustments and dominated every round except for round 6. During round 6, Spence got hit with some big shots because he lost his mouthpiece, and he searched for it. After he turned to look for his mouthpiece, he was clipped by Ugas and sent across the ring. I had Ugas winning round 1 and 6 because of that. All the other rounds went to Spence.
Edgar Berlanga Can Still Bring Excitement Back to New York Boxing
Edgar Berlanga, an up-and-coming name in the sport of boxing, but he didn't produce a big finish versus Steve Rolls. There is still a significant opportunity for Berlanga to be the center of New York boxing. Mike Tyson is the most prominent New York boxer in history, and we can remember the excitement his fights drew in the late eighties and early nineties. Some other notable fighters from New York, like Shannon Briggs and Teofimo Lopez, are great, but Berlanga is unique because he is Puerto Rican. Puerto Ricans have played a significant role in New York's entertainment culture. Even when you look at hip-hop and the impact Puerto Ricans have had on break dancing, graffiti, and rapping. Big Pun is still considered one of the best rappers of all time. Then you can talk about the impact of Lin-Manuel Miranda and his play "Hamilton" and the many awards, including a Grammy he won for best play. So, you can see how Edgar Berlanga's background has already impacted his fight attendance. He drew some of the biggest names in music, including top hip-hop stars. There is a lot of pressure for Berlanga to come out and perform at a high level.
