At the high-profile boxing event of Canelo vs Smith, the WBC, and IBF welterweight king, Errol Spence Jr. marked himself present. DAZN Boxing interviewed him in between this star-studded event. Here, ‘The Truth’ talked about booking a much-anticipated fight with fellow American, Terence Crawford.

He lashed out at Crawford’s promoter, Bob Arum for lying and protecting Crawford from him. Spence Jr confessed, “I mean that could happen, we obviously had a go, but like you know I can move up to 160 (middleweight).”

I think it could happen. I mean, just for you know Al (Haymon) and Bob (Arum) sit down and you know for Bob stop lying. So we’ll see, but I think it definitely could happen a few. These guys sit down and talk and you know go over and over and things like that what it definitely could happen but like I said, I’m the big dog at the welterweight division and he gotta take a backseat,” ‘The Truth’ concluded.

Both these options would appear intriguing for boxing fans who would want to see Spence Jr return to the ring at the earliest.
