HORRIFIC: WBC Champion Errol Spence Jr. Recalls Car Accident

Errol Spence Jr. against Danny Garcia is a must watch

Both the pugilists have cemented themselves in the top-slot of the welterweight division with absolute dominance. Although Garcia has 2 losses alongside 36 wins, he is a legitimate threat for the current welterweight champions. The 32-year-old orthodox has speed and appears great at counter-attacking his rivals.

Well, Errol Spence Jr. is an unbeaten champion who has risen to the top spectacularly. He boasts of a pro record of 26 wins with 21 knockouts in it and has already tasted the boxing gold.

He is a technical puncher who can drag the fight deep and can even close it with one punch. So, he is deadlier in the mix.

The fight can go the distance and will seemingly be a tough-call. Since both the contenders can equally consume shots, it will be tough to take one down.

Prediction: Errol Spence Jr. beats Danny Garcia via unanimous decision.
