What’s next for Errol Spence Jr.?
After such an alluring return, the champion might lock horns in a rematch against Shawn Porter. He has already beaten Porter in the past, but considering the ongoing welterweight tale, we might see the rematch soon. Meanwhile, a face-off with Terence Crawford is also possible.
