Errol Spence<\/a> finally looks set to make his long-awaited return to the ring.<\/p>\n

\u2018The Truth\u2019 is a former unified welterweight world champion, having defeated fighters such as Shawn Porter, Mikey Garcia, Yordenis Ugas and Danny Garcia to become WBC, IBF and WBA champion.<\/p>\n

It all led to an undisputed showdown with Terence Crawford<\/a> in July 2023, and despite it being viewed as a 50-50 clash, Crawford was a dominant winner, dropping Spence multiple times on his way to a ninth round stoppage victory.<\/a><\/p>\n

Over two years later, Spence is still yet to return to action, but reports in recent months suggest that his comeback could be imminent.<\/p>\n

\u2018The Truth\u2019 has now only added to that speculation with a recent video posted of him back training in the gym<\/a>, showing off his new physique that has got fans talking.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

One fan posted \u201cGlad to see him back and working. I always liked Errol Spence Jr.\u201d That was then echoed by another, who posted \u201cCome on Errol you got this we still here with you brother.\u201d<\/p>\n

It appears that there are a number of options for Spence, having been linked to a clash against former undisputed super-welterweight champion Jermell Charlo<\/a>, who himself has been inactive for nearly two years.<\/p>\n

One factor that could prevent a Spence vs. Charlo fight from happening is the fact that Charlo has also been mandated for a fight against Abass Baraou, but if recent social media activity is to be believed, it seems that Charlo may favour the fight against \u2018The Truth\u2019 instead.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Errol Spence finally looks set to make his long-awaited return to the ring. \u2018The Truth\u2019 is a former…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":115072,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-115071","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\/115071","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=115071"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115071\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/115072"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=115071"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=115071"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=115071"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
