“This Is Disgusting”: Former World Champion’s Belts Getting Stolen in Home Robbery Leaves Boxing World Furious

Yordenis Ugas has dominated the welterweight division for almost a year till April 2022. He held the WBA welterweight title for that specific period of time. Ugas is well known as the last opponent of the Filipino legend Manny Pacquiao before the latter’s retirement. Ugas managed to retain the WBA (Super) welterweight title by defeating Pacquiao. There were talks regarding a rematch between the two fighters, but it didn’t come to fruition. Eventually, he lost his welterweight title to Errol Spence Jr. on April 2022.

But, recently, the boxer nicknamed ’54 Milagros’ has reported a robbery at his house. His house was robbed by two unknown thieves and they’ve been accused of stealing his championship belts. Ugas took his frustration out on Twitter and posted a video of footage from his security cameras.

Ugas has found himself in a frustrating situation following the robbery. He has come out and called the thieves ‘rats’ on his Twitter post.

The robbery at Yordenis Ugas’ house

In the video posted by Ugas, the thieves can be seen trying to break into the house, with their pieces of equipment. And then in another segment, both of them could be seen running across the backyard with one of them holding Yordenis Ugas’ championship belts.

And then they flee out of the back door. Well, the investigation is still going and the police had still not confirmed the identity of the two individuals visible in the recording. And this incident took a major toll on the mental stability of Ugas and his fiance. Fans are still confused about the boxer’s marital status, and the question still lingers on the internet, is Ugas married?
