Fresh off cataract surgery, Errol Spence Jr has declared himself ready to return and has his sights set on the winner of this weekend’s title fight between Tim Tszyu and Sebastian Fundora. It’s around 10 months since his defeat against Terence Crawford, and the boxing world has heard something about a comeback from Errol. Tszyu, the reigning WBO champion, faces a dilemma. While holding onto his belt offers prestige, a fight with Spence promises a much bigger payday thanks to Spence’s massive PPV draw.

However, pursuing the lucrative fight could come at a cost–Tszyu would likely have to vacate his WBO title as he bypasses the mandatory challenger, Terence Crawford. However, things would completely change if Sebastian Fundora grabbed the victory in the highly anticipated matchup. It’d give Spence Jr. a free pass to make his comeback. But what did he say on social media that has thumb-stamped his return?

Errol Spence Jr. wants to put an end to his hiatus

Taking to social media, the Texan announced his arrival in Las Vegas with a chilling message: “Headed to Vegas. I want the winner. #TszyuFundora“. The accompanying video left no room for misinterpretation. Spence, a fighter nicknamed “The Truth,” used a shark to symbolize his predatory intent. He’s ready to snatch the victor from the upcoming clash between WBO champion Tim Tszyu and Sebastian Fundora.

This cryptic yet powerful declaration throws a wrench into the super welterweight division. Furthermore, this declaration even reached Tim Tszyu, who got excited to see Spence Jr. get back into the discussion of competing inside the squared circle. Speaking to FightHype, Tszyu stated, “Beautiful, he’s finally awake. I thought he was asleep for a long time.

So, it’s going to be an amazing spectacle since Spence Jr has also announced that he’ll be present ringside at the enthralling Tszyu-Fundora showdown. However, the fans showed a desire for a rematch against Terence Crawford.

Fans want something else from ‘The Truth’

The post instantly caught a lot of attention, since this is after a long time since Spence Jr. has made his return to discussions about his future fights. So, it’s nothing less than a miracle for some boxing fans. The comments were flooded with all the possibilities for him in the future.

One user was excited to hear from Errol Spence Jr, as he’s been waiting for some updates from the former unified welterweight champion.

If Spence Jr does get a fight against the winner of the Tim Tszyu vs. Sebastian Fundora, it’ll definitely sell a lot of tickets. Additionally, it’ll be a great setup fight for one of the most anticipated boxing rematches in history.
