Ugas: "In a rematch with Pacquiao, we'll be prepared even better"

Ten days ago Manny Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KOs) lost to WBA welterweight champion Yordenis Ugas (27-4, 12 KOs), but it looks like a January rematch between the Filipino and the Cuban could well be a reality. Ugas stresses that he would be happy to face Manny a second time.

"If there is a rematch, the main difference will be that we will both be better prepared. When I step into the ring in the second fight, I will have a complete training camp behind me specifically for Pacquiao," Ugas said.

"Pacquiao is a legend, a great warrior. There was no doubt in my mind about agreeing to the first fight. I said yes right away. The second fight will be an honor and a pleasure for me," the boxer nicknamed "54 Milagros" added.

Cuban 2008 Beijing Olympic medalist and 2005 Olympic boxing world champion, who replaced the injured Errol Spence at the last minute, defeated the Filipino in Las Vegas on August 21 by unanimous decision.
