Will Errol Spence Return?

Derrick James, the coach of former IBF, WBA, and WBC welterweight (up to 66,67 kg) champion Errol Spence (28-1, 22 KOs), finally commented on his fighter, who hasn't been in the ring since the summer of 2023.

"I'm focused on my other guys. We spoke three weeks ago. He doesn't need to look back. You can't look forward and backward at the same time.

I think he's mentally okay. When you're in your biggest fight and you lose, when the music stops playing, you either have to dance or pick up a chair.

If he's healthy and all is well with him – he'll continue to win," James said.

Last summer, Spence lost to Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) by a stoppage in the 9th round. It was a fight for the undisputed championship – Crawford became the first in history to be a two-time undisputed champion, while Spence initially talked about a rematch, then underwent eye surgery, and since then, there has been no information regarding his next opponent.
