Round-by-Round: Manny Pacquiao vs. Yordenis Ugas - August 21, 2021

[oogiebe]

Here i will tell you my biggest loss

I lost 1k on cotto losing to margarito. Imagine how much I hate that pos margarito when i found out he cheated. Effer owes me a grand

Except for last night's bet, in terms of total sums, I've probably lost more than won, over the last couple of years, but I do tend to bet on the method of victory, which is better odds, but harder to win.

The biggest win of my life was Mayweather-McGregor. I placed a massive bet, because the odds were silly. The amount I bet on Ugas was less than that.

Hmm, someone that will never admit they are wrong, makes a prediction that is wrong, then claims they won money going against their own prediction? That's some funny stuff!

...then expects everyone to believe him.

So are you guys claiming that I never told the forum multiple times that I was going to back Ugas?

I don’t need to say anything else, because my posting history is easy for you to verify.

Let's just say you covered a couple of avenues.

Who gives a f@ck! I won some money on Ugas.

Congrats EO
How much did you get back?

I don’t want to disclose any monetary amounts relating to my bet.

But put it this way, it was the biggest bet I’d placed in the last five years. It was over-the-top... excessive.

It was an impulsive thing and I instantly regretted it! But fortunately for me, it came good.

I don’t think I’ll ever do that again though.

I don’t bet that often, usually small sums to make fights more excitingt to watch. But last night I was very nervous. And I haven’t got the guts to go through an ordeal like that again!

you are amazing! congrats! you are soo good! the best!

come on! tell us! how much was it? are you set now?

again! you're just the best! much love! what a better! the best there is!

Back to the subject matter;

Ugas won the fight but I think that many are selling Manny’s effort short, and over stating the Cuban’s achievement.

Manny was competitive in that fight to the end and I think that anything more than 116-112 is too wide. Ugas lost rounds on inactivity and just getting out fought. He left the door open to a draw or gift decision for Manny when he should have put a more indelible stamp on the victory.

Make no mistake, it was a great win for Ugas, but until the decision was announced no one was certain of the outcome.

yeah right, whatever.... but what's much more important, and i don't like you so nonchalantly go over that, is how amazing eo's betting effort was!

i don't think you understand the magnitude of his success man!

we all should show a bit more gratitude that he so selflessly shared this frickin amazing banger of a bet on here!

[Enlightened-One]

Stephen Espinoza sounds rather bitter about Pacquiao.

I guess he held a grudge based on Pacquiao’s excuses after the Mayweather fight, when the Filipino’s team claimed he needed surgery to fix the problem, but was miraculously fixed by going for a quick swim in the sea.

How could I have been so dismissive of such a massive and consequential accomplishment (although I already acknowledged it on one or the other of the several threads E-I-E-I-O posted it on)?!

Yes. He does.

Great card ! Ugas' win was no upset to me. I hope this is it for Manny.

Agreed. Couldn't understand why ESPN said he upset Manny.

That was mostly Dan Rafael saying that too.

Yeah, that figures. IMHO, pac in his prime takes out Ugas, but at 42 and a long layoff expectations were a bit high for manny.

[adislav123]

Saw highlights that's it.
Looked like a dreary fight, Ugas looked good for the win.

Dreary? Not if you are a boxing fan.

[margaret thatcher]

it was average for me, no real drama or big moments, not too much sustained action, no one hurt...and ugas won comfortably enough that the result was never in doubt barring a robbery..........but it did have enough to be considered an okay fight. some decent exchanges at the end of rounds. some rounds ugas only had a slight advantage and at times pac look liked he might be able to get over the hump and start coming on, but it just didnt happen

pac gave it a real go but at 42 just didnt have it in him anymore. ugas boxed well, though i think prime pac pretty much shuts him out.

[DrDuke]

The fight wasn't that entertaining indeed. A decent bout to watch it once, unless you're a big Ugas fan. Ugas boxed well, but Pac had almost nothing to suggest. If Pac was able to provide more effort, acknowledging who he is even despite the age, than the fight would go with expectations.

Anyone hear the story about the 42 year old with 7 losses who fought the 35 year old who had 4 losses?

I think it is also accurate to say that Manny's evolving excuse about his legs are bs too. There was nothing wrong with his legs. By the way, the outcome was accurate. Ironbeard = EO obviously.

Try again.

I agreed with the judges’ decision.

You have no idea whether or not he was having issues with his legs. It does not matter. He lost legitimately.
