Errol Spence Jr. Undecided on Retirement Ahead of Return From Three-Year Layoff Against Tim Tszyu

Porter says Spence’s movement and experience could exploit Tszyu’s flat-footed style in a middleweight bout after Spence’s 3-year layoff.

  • On Saturday, former world champions Errol Spence Jr. and Tim Tszyu collide at Sydney's Afterpay Arena, headlining a major event broadcast live on Amazon Prime.
  • Spence returns after three years of inactivity following his 2023 loss to Terence Crawford, while Tszyu seeks to reclaim the super-welterweight championship after setbacks against Sebastian Fundora and Bakhram Murtazaliev.
  • Former champion Shawn Porter suggested Spence holds a stylistic advantage, noting that while Tszyu punches in combinations, he remains "too flat-footed" and keeps his head on "centreline."
  • The winner moves back into the championship conversation at 154 pounds, while Tszyu vows to test Spence from the "opening bell" in front of his home supporters.
  • Stephen Fulton Jr. faces Liam Wilson in a WBA super featherweight title eliminator on the undercard, capping a significant night for boxing in the United States and the region.
