Errol Spence and Ryan Garcia recently clashed in a heated exchange on social media when Spence refused to entertain the idea of fighting Garcia. When asked by a fan, Spence made it clear that he doesn’t see Garcia as a worthy adversary, emphasizing that he doesn’t engage in fights meant for warm-ups.
Spence’s blunt remark suggests that he still sees himself as a level above Garcia, despite his recent defeat to Terence Crawford and facing criticism from fans. While many saw the loss to Crawford as a reality check for Spence, he appears to be stuck in the past, reluctant to accept his current career standing.
Spence seems to be missing out on the potential financial gains a bout with Garcia could bring, considering that a fight with Garcia is likely to generate more revenue than other matchups. On the flip side, Garcia issued a challenge to Spence, exuding confidence in his ability to conquer Spence and pick up where Crawford left off.
It remains to be seen whether Spence’s pride will hinder him from accepting Garcia’s offer or if he might have a change of heart once he grasps the advantages of such a showdown. If Spence opts out of the fight, it could mean a missed chance to earn more in future contests.
