JAKARTA - Errol Spence Jr seems very ambitious to immediately face Terence Crawford. He challenged the WBO welterweight champion after a technical knockout (TKO) win over Yordenis Ugas.
Spence Jr. won in the 10th round over Ugas when the two boxers fought at AT&T Stadium, Arlington, Sunday, April 17 local time.
The victory made the 32-year-old boxer hold three WBA Super, WBC and IBF titles. The only way to become a true welterweight champion is to win the WBO title currently held by Crawford.
"Everyone knows who I want next. I want Terence Crawford. That's what I and everyone else want. Terence, I've come to claim your title," Spence told the WBC website.
Spence is unbeaten in 28 fights throughout his professional career of which 22 are knockouts.
In the last match, the boxer nicknamed "The Truth" made Ugas battered until the doctor advised the fight to be stopped in the 10th round because Ugas' right eye was badly injured.
On the other hand, Crawford is also an unbeaten boxer in 38 matches and 29 of them were won by knockout. The 173 cm boxer won the WBO title on his welterweight debut on June 9, 2018 by defeating Jeff Horn at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas.
Then, he successfully defended the title in five matches. Finally, Crawford won by TKO in round 10 over Shawn Porter at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, Las Vegas, on November 20, 2021.
