Errol Spence Jr. was as surprised as most of us when Kell Brook embraced a two-division move to challenge intimidating middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin.

BROOKLYN - Undefeated rising star Errol "The Truth" Spence Jr. (20-0, 17 KOs) is set to take on once-beaten contender Leonard "The Lion" Bundu (33-1-2, 12 KOs) in a 12-round welterweight world title eliminator that headlines Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on NBC Sunday, August 21 from Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn.

New York - With so many good welterweights in the world, one would think a star like IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (36-0, 25KOs) would be getting big fights left and right. Such is not the case.

Abel Sanchez, trainer for IBF/WBA/WBC/IBO middleweight king Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin, believes unbeaten Errol Spence (20-0, 17KOs) would drill WBC welterweight champion Danny Garcia (32-0, 18KOs) if they met in the ring.

Top rated welterweight contender Errol Spence Jr. expects former five division world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (49-0, 26KOs) to return to the ring in the not too distance future.

Italian Olympian Leonard Bundu (33-1-2, 12 KOs) is already gearing up for a planned IBF final welterweight eliminator with Errol Spence Jr. (20-0, 17 KOs), which is being targeted to headline a special Sunday edition of Premier Boxing Champions on NBC. The date of the fight is August 21

Errol Spence promised to deliver big news and lived up to his word. The unbeaten welterweight contender appeared as a guest commentator during Saturday’s edition of Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on NBC in primetime. Topping the bill was a major upset with unheralded Joe Smith Jr. scoring a stunning 1st round knockout of Top 5 light heavyweight contender Andrzej Fonfara in front of a hostile crowd at UIC Pavilion in Chicago, Illinois. Also on the show was Spence’s teammate from the 2012 London...

Errol Spence becomes the latest athlete to man the broadcast table for a Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) event. The unbeaten welterweight contender will join – in some capacity – the team of Marv Albert, Kenny Rice and BJ Flores for Saturday’s primetime edition of PBC on NBC, which airs live from UIC Pavilion in Chicago, Illinois.

It’s likely that Errol Spence will have to move into the mandatory challenger position in order to force the hand of reigning welterweight titlist Kell Brook. The trick is finding a willing opponent to help get him to that point.
