Pacquiao is fighting Ugas after his initial opponent Errol Spence Jr was forced to withdraw after suffering an injury to his left eye.
Pacquiao, who has not fought since his win over Keith Thurman in July 2019, is the firm favourite to win against Ugas in Las Vegas.
The Pac Man is the huge odds-on favourite to win at 2/9 while Ugas is a larger price at 3/1.
With Pacquiao being the clear favourite, the bookies are struggling to pick a clear method of victory for the 42-year-old veteran.
He is 13/10 to win via KO/TKO and a slightly larger price of 7/5 to win via points or decision.

Manny Pacquiao has hinted he could retire if he defeats Ugas in the weekend.
Pacquiao said: “I feel great. My team has full confidence in my capabilities even at 42 years old and they note that I still have what it takes to face elite calibre opponents.
“Although the recuperation period of a 42-year-old may not be the same as a 25-year-old fighter, I still love what I am doing. I’m enjoying training and I’m learning more about myself everyday.
“Everything is top secret, of course. I’m training and challenging myself daily and I am inspired to perform at my best owing to the fact that this might be my last fight.
“I’ve never given predictions. I always climb the ring ready and prepared for everything.
“Everything is at stake as this might be my last fight. I might as well finish the race with a spectacular performance.
“Legacies are subjective to the minds of the fans. Of course, a win for me after so long out would be very grand for my country and family.”
