Cuba’s official press describes the Cuban boxer as forgetful and servile Yordenis Ugás to show himself “politically radicalized alongside those who want a Cuba surrendered to the designs of the American empire,” following his recent victory over professional boxing legend Manny Pacquiao.
“His publications and statements after the victory leave no doubt: that humble boy, loved and even pampered by his coaches, now supports clear aggressors of the homeland and encapsulates speeches little achieved, far from the clarity of his actions among the ropes “, exposes the portal Jit, spokesman of the National Institute of Sports, Physical Education and Recreation of Cuba (INDER) on the historical performance of Ugás this Saturday in front of the Philippine rival.
The pro-government media outlet also points out that the Cuban boxer “does not recognize or appreciate his training here”, as well as “it is difficult to understand that he defames his former teammates and tries to exercise leadership under the protection of those who grow attacks against the country that saw him born “.
The press also questioned him about his decision to climb the ring to the beat of the musical theme “Homeland and Life”, with an equal return to fly at the end of the fight to celebrate his victory, to be the “anthem of the enemies.”
“Since Saturday, boxing connoisseurs have applauded his sporting victory, but millions of Cubans regret his forgetfulness and clear servility during the courtship,” the pro-Ugás official portal concluded.
Yordenis Ugás made history this Saturday by defeating legendary Manny Pacquiao by unanimous decision of the judges and retaining the crown of the World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Welterweight.
“Thanks to @MannyPacquiao for giving me the opportunity to share the ring with him, he’s still one of the best fighters in history. Much respect. Thanks to everyone who supported me. I hope we’ve given a big fight to all the fans. Thank you, “the champion tweeted after his victory.
