    Errol Spence Suffered a Retinal Detachment/Break Per Bob Bennett



    Wow, so it was a retinal detachment. That's the injury that has killed plenty of careers or impacted them in big ways. I think there is a solid chance he never returns to the ring, or if he does, it is after a long break.

    Best wishes to him and his family!

      Definitely a chance he is done. This is going to be a LONG and difficult recovery and it just may not be worth it to ever fight again. He has made good money but his competitive spirit may get him back in the ring.

            See what happens when you marinate fights? He should've fought Bud last year or year before.

              NSAC is trash overall no doubt, but they probably just saved this man from going blind from one eye. He's obviously depressed right now losing out on a dream match up, but it could have ended ugly for him. Heck, even in sparring he could have been badly damaged in the eye.

              What I'm curious about is if this happened post Danny Garcia fight or before it? if before it, and presumably from the crash, how TF did the Texas commission clear him?

                It's a damn shame if this happened just because he was driving drunk.

                Threw a promising career away just for some alcohol.

                  Shame. I like Spence and I felt like he had many great fights left in him
