Spence Vs. Crawford’s Ring Entrance Decided By A Coin Flip, ‘Bud’ Arrives In Vegas

Errol Spence Jr. disclosed some of the finer details involved in his fight with Terence Crawford on July 29th, 2023. 

Both fighters will put their legacy on the line, as the winner will become the first undisputed welterweight champion of the four-belt era.

The fight had been a long time coming and was finally made when both fighters hashed things out over the phone. Disagreements over who is the A-side held things up.

It is not clear if this will have a bearing coming into fight week, but one thing for sure is that Spence is ready for anything.

“My first world title was in Sheffield, England, and I had been on my longest layoff of a year and some change, waiting for him to get better to fight him. So my mentality, it don’t matter where we fight. It could be anywhere,” Spence said
