Errol Spence Team Finally Respond To Call Out From Jermell Charlo With Clear 5 Word Message

Errol Spence Jr could be set for his long-awaited return to the ring after being called out for a showdown with Jermell Charlo.

The 35-year-old from Long Island, New York has not fought since he suffered the first defeat of his career to fellow countryman Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford back in July of 2023, falling short in his attempt at becoming the undisputed welterweight champion.

Rumours about Spence’s return to the ring have began to circulate in recent weeks however, with former undisputed super-welterweight champion and former gym partner Charlo teasing a potential match-up next.

Charlo has also been out of the ring since 2023 after he was beaten by Mexican superstar and reigning undisputed super-middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez, suffering just the second defeat of his career in the process.

Speaking on social media, Jacob Spence, cousin of Errol, sent a clear message out to Charlo as rumours of their potential clash begin to intensify, warning they could ‘do him worse than Canelo’.

“We could do him worse than Canelo did.”

Spence is expected to make the move up to super-welterweight ahead of his long-awaited comeback to the sport, which is said to have been scheduled to take place at the beginning of the year but these plans fell through.

The 35-year-old was reportedly in negotiations to face reigning WBC super-welterweight champion and fellow countryman Sebastian Fundora, but the duo failed to come to a suitable agreement for a showdown.
