For the winner, the only title missing to complete the undisputed crown would be the WBO strap owned by Crawford, 34.

And with the American now a free agent, he’s one step closer to a superfight with Spence, 31.

But the also-undefeated Texan has vowed to become a three-belt holder first to set up the undisputed decider.

Spence told DAZN: “When I speak to my manager, the people he deals with now, I think it’s a lot easier to get done.

“We’ll see what happens after the Ugas thing. If I have three belts.

“A lot of people want me to say this and that, but the proof is in the pudding of what I do.

“I’m fighting for my third belt, let’s put something on the table so I can fight for a fourth belt.”

Spence was struggling for boxing legend Manny Pacquiao, 43, last August until he retired with an eye injury.

Ugas, 35, instead stepped in as a substitute to beat Pacquiao and eventually see the Filipino icon retire.

Spence said: “He’s a solid fighter, he’s from the Cuban boxing school, solid fundamentals.

“He has a good stepback, throws good body shots, good jab. He is basically healthy. He makes a few mistakes but I like him.”
