IBF welterweight world champion Errol Spence spoke to the media after the Danny Garcia vs Shawn Porter WBC welterweight title fight last night and some comments he made have not gone down well with WBO champion Terence Crawford.
Crawford and Spence are widely regarded as two of the best fighters in the sport today.
Pound for pound in most people’s top four.
A fight between the two is building all the time but realistically I can’t see it happening until late 2019 at the earliest.
It needs a bit of building as despite the two boxers being among the best out there, they are nowhere near as famous as they should be yet.
Also, Spence called out new WBC champion Shawn Porter last night after his win over Danny Garcia.
So expect that next for him.
He also made some comments that have displeased Terence Crawford who said to Spence:
Lol @ErrolSpenceJr yea you was drunk last night boy you are no way shape or form the A side dummy ??? you talking about who I beat everyone you beat I’ll smash boy how many titles and different weight classes have you won I’ll wait
