Cooper's Late 3 Lifts Hawks Over Pacers in NBA Summer League ARAB TIMES, THURSDAY, AUGUST 12, 2021 SPORTS 15 WBA welterweight champion Ugás will step in to face Pac Man Spence drops out of Pacquiao fi ght with eye injury LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11, (AP): Er- rol Spence Jr. has dropped out of his pay-per-view fi ght with Manny Pac- quiao on Aug. 21 because of a retinal tear in his left eye. WBA welterweight champion Yor- denis Ugás will step in to face Pac- Cooper’s late 3 lifts Hawks over quiao at T-Mobile Arena in Las Ve- gas on the same date, the promoters announced Tuesday. Spence (27-0, 21 KOs) holds the WBC and IBF welterweight titles, but he has fought just once since Septem- ber 2019 due to a car crash and the Pacers in NBA Summer League coronavirus pandemic. According to his promoters, Spence didn’t learn he had a torn retina until a prefi ght medi- cal examination by the Nevada State Athletic Commission on Monday. Spence will have surgery at home in Texas on Wednesday to repair the tear, but he will miss out on his high- profi le showdown with the 42-year- old Pacquiao (62- 7-2, 39 KOs), the former eight-divi- Ugás sion champion re- turning to boxing after a two-year absence. “I was excited about the fi ght and the event,” Spence said. “There was no way I could fi ght with my eye in that condition. I’d like to apolo- gize to everyone. You know I’ll be back soon. We’ve come back from worse.’’ Ugás (26-4, 12 KOs) was sched- uled to make his fi rst career defense of his WBA title on the undercard of Pacquiao’s meeting with Spence. Pacquiao beat Keith Thurman to win the same WBA title belt in his most recent bout in 2019. BOXING The 35-year-old Ugás was elevated to welterweight super champion in the WBA’s byzantine championship sys- tem last January after Pacquiao was abruptly stripped of the belt for inactiv- ity. The Filipino congressman quickly agreed to shift his focus to Ugás after Spence’s injury was discovered, per- haps partly because of the way he lost his WBA championship. “The proper way and the only way to win a world title is inside the ring,” Pacquiao said. Ugás was scheduled to fi ght Fabian Maidana on the undercard of Pacqui- ao-Spence, but the Cuban Olympic bronze medal winner instead will get the biggest showcase of his up- San Antonio Spurs’ Nate Renfro, above, blocks the layup of Chicago Bulls’ Simi Shittu during the fi rst half of an NBA summer league basketball game, on Aug. 10, in Las Vegas.
