Former unified welterweight titleholder Errol Spence (28-1, 22 KOs) will finally be making his way back to the ring for the first time since 2023 as ESPN reports a bout against former super welterweight champion Tim Tszyu (27-3, 18 KOs) on July 25. The 154 lb fight will headline a PBC PPV event streaming on Amazon Prime at a venue that has still yet to be determined.
Spence, 36, has been out of action since a mid-2023 stoppage loss to Terence Crawford in a bid to go undisputed at 147. Spence took
a pretty brutal beating in that fight that came on the heels of several other outside of the ring issues, but has been suggesting the time off has him rejuvenated.
Tszyu, 31, has won two straight lower-level fights since a rough recent stretch where he had lost three of the previous four, two by way of stoppage.
This is obviously a crossroads fight for both to see which, if either, are still viable contenders at the super welterweight division given that there’s plenty of question marks out there on both. We’ll see what both men still have to offer this summer.
