UFS resize partition to use free space before it

I have a drive that had 2 partitions (mbr partition table), 1st was ntfs (ada3s1) the second UFS (ada3s2). I deleted ada3s1. "gpart show ada3" shows it as "-free-" then tried to resize ada3s2 "gpart resize -i 2 - ada3", it says it resized, but it did not use the free space before it (the partition I deleted) . It meets the "free space adjacent to the partition " criteria. What am I missing?
