Errol Spence

Let’s hope he’s okay.

Crazy. We have no idea the extent of his injuries. There have been no reports about it possibly being fatal so I’m assuming that we are just waiting to hear how bad it is.

Heard on radio he is in intensive care, so must be serious.

From what I've read he'll be OK. Whether he boxes again ? I don't know. Whether he even wants to box again ? i don't know



But presuming he survives then maybe Spence can be the new Kanye.



It was this car accident in 2002 that inspired Kayne's first song and major hit in 2003 "Through The Wire". It's likely without the car accident Kayne wouldn't have went on to become what he has become.

But if Spence can't continue his career, then hopefully he's done well with the money he's made and can manage it.

The first chance he can walk, he better go to church and thank God he’s alive and I MEAN that because for some reason he never wore a seat-belt and that saved him. He was traveling close to 200 mph in that Ferrari and was ejected b4 the car rolled over 5 times, had he not been ejected ? Would he have survived ?

Happen. Not. Gonna.



Ferrari's and most high power cars can flip or go out of control over a little pot hole.

Paul Williams, Diego Corrales (RIP) and Salvador Sanchez (RIP) must be thinking



And this is why you don’t marinate fights. You never know what might happen inside or outside the ring. It wouldn't surprise me if Arum is trying to put together Spence/Crawford now.

Boxer Errol Spence in ICU after Ferrari crash in Dallas

Welterweight boxing champion Errol Spence crashed a speeding Ferrari in Dallas early Thursday and was badly injured but is expected to survive, police said.

The crash happened just before 3 a.m., when Spence’s Ferrari crossed a median into oncoming traffic and flipped over several times, police said.

Spence was taken to a hospital, where he was placed in the intensive care unit. Police said they’re still investigating the cause of the crash, but they noted that the Ferrari was speeding at the time.

Last month, the former U.S. Olympian added the WBC welterweight title to his IBF strap with a thrilling split-decision victory over Shawn Porter in Los Angeles.

With his rangy athleticism and virtuosic skill, Spence (26-0) has captured fans with a series of crisp victories in recent years. He won the IBF title in 2017 by stopping Kell Brook in England, and he defended it three times, culminating in a one-sided thrashing of undersized Mikey Garcia in March.

His bout with the veteran brawler Porter (30-3-1) was Spence’s biggest test yet, and he emerged victorious from a fight that featured several wild exchanges of punches and had the Staples Center crowd of 16,702 on its feet throughout the 12th round, roaring for both fighters when they embraced after the final bell.

Sad to hear that, and I hope he makes a full recovery. He was very fortunate to have survived that horrible accident.

[p4pking]

Seems amazing he would survive at all being thrown from a car that ended up looking like that, never mind making a full recovery.

[Ron Swanson]

Saw the crash, ugly, damn shame. Hope he ends up healthy to raise his daughters

[powerpuncher]

I saw something that said he didn’t break any bones. That would be very nice if true
