WHO’S NEXT FOR SPENCE? 🥊
———————————————————————— Errol Spence who turned 30 recently, told the fans he’ll have one more final check-up by the Cleveland Clinic before returning to the ring. “Everything has been excellent and I’m fully recovered now. Hopefully, I can fight in September or October or whenever it is that this current event [Coronavirus] is over with. Me and Al [Haymon] have been talking and we were aiming for July or August, but this happened and we pushed it back. So, what has Spence said about his next move and who are the options?

Shawn Porter rematch:
“I said before that fight that I was going to fight Shawn Porter’s fight,” said Spence. “I’m going to fight him toe-to-toe, and it’s going to be a really hard, gruelling fight, and I’m going to fight just how he wants to fight.

If that fight happens again, I won’t fight him the same,” said Spence about Porter. “If that fight happens again, I’ll be open to it. That was a great fight.

He has a belt too, and I would love to get that belt because my goal is to the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. So I would have to fight him unless he vacates or if somebody else beats him. That’s a fight that I would love to have,” said Spence.

Ranked by the International Boxing Research Organisation as the number one lightweight in history and as the eighth best pound-for-pound fighter of all-time, the Ghetto Wizard is held in the same regard to some as Muhammad Ali or Floyd Mayweather.
