Errol Spence Jr<\/a> could be set for his long-awaited return to the ring after being called out for a showdown with Jermell Charlo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 35-year-old from Long Island, New York has not fought since he suffered the first defeat of his career to fellow countryman Terence \u2018Bud\u2019 Crawford<\/a> back in July of 2023, falling short in his attempt at becoming the undisputed welterweight champion.<\/p>\n

Rumours about Spence\u2019s return to the ring have began to circulate in recent weeks however, with former undisputed super-welterweight champion and former gym partner Charlo teasing a potential match-up next<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Charlo has also been out of the ring since 2023 after he was beaten by Mexican superstar and reigning undisputed super-middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez, suffering just the second defeat of his career in the process.<\/p>\n

Speaking on social media<\/a>, Jacob Spence, cousin of Errol, sent a clear message out to Charlo as rumours of their potential clash begin to intensify, warning they could \u2018do him worse than Canelo\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe could do him worse than Canelo did.\u201d<\/p>\n

Spence is expected to make the move up to super-welterweight ahead of his long-awaited comeback to the sport, which is said to have been scheduled to take place at the beginning of the year but these plans fell through.<\/p>\n

The 35-year-old was reportedly in negotiations to face reigning WBC super-welterweight champion and fellow countryman Sebastian Fundora, but the duo failed to come to a suitable agreement for a showdown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Errol Spence Jr could be set for his long-awaited return to the ring after being called out for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":103579,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-103578","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/103578","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=103578"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/103578\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/103579"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=103578"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=103578"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=103578"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
