02:38The last of the non-televised undercard fights is in the books after Cuba’s Yordenis Ugas’s unanimous-decision win over Puerto Rico’s Thomas Dulorme in a 10-round welterweight bout that saw both men taste the canvas. This is a case of a faded champion being served up to a young comer and it’s playing out before a T-Mobile Arena that’s 95% empty. That’s fairly true to form for big fights in Las Vegas where the arena typically doesn’t fill up until the penultimate bout. But tonight’s undercard, already a dire affair, was dealt yet another blow yesterday when Mayweather protégé Gervonta Davis lost his IBF junior lightweight title on the scale when he missed weight by two pounds. Not a good look, though he did apologize.
