MIAMI, FL (September 4, 2021) - WBA Welterweight World Champion
Yordenis Ugás will be honored with the “Key to the City” of Miami by Mayor Francis Suarez on Tuesday, September 7 at 3:30 p.m. Ugás defeated eight-division world champion and Philippine Senator Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao on August 21, 2021, to retain his title. The fight was seen by millions around the world.
Ugás will join a select club of elite athletes that have received this distinction in South Florida, making his place among luminaries and past recipients such as Florida Marlins pitcher and World Series champion Livan Hernández, NBA Champions Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O´Neal, global music superstars Shakira and Jennifer López, and actor Will Smith among others that have been honored through the years.
