Boxing was back in the spotlight last night from Arlington Texas when Errol Spence faced off against Danny Garcia. Spence fought for the first time in over a year due to a severe car accident that nearly killed him.
Garcia had is eyes set on Spence's tittles and even with the lay off Danny "Swift" Garcia knew he had a tough task ahead of him.
Spence, known as The Truth, did not disappoint his fans. Nor did he look like a fighter that has not fight in over a year.
Spence fought a smart fight and used his jab to control the fight. The jab took its toll on Garcia and on his eye. Garcia's eye was swollen but it did not end up being a factor.
Garcia fought a decent fight, throwing hard punches but was not aggressive enough to win rounds. Spence win the fight without question and was given the unanimous decision.
Now the question is what's next for both fighters? Many want to see Spence take on the other Champ in the division, Terrance Bud Crawford. Spence did not clarify who he wanted to fight in the post fight interview, leading some to think he is dodging Crawford.
Garcia is 0-3 in Championship fights ans you have to wonder are his boxing days numbered? He will need to win his next fight in dominating fashion if he wants to remain relevant.
