Make a ful recovery champ, prayers with u and ur family
I hope he heals well…. Then I hope his parents, his daughters, and all the people he says he fights for, get together and whup his ass like a rented mule…You can’t say shit like that and then go out and do dickhead shit.. what about all those people you were just talking about?
What did he say?
Lesson learned here hopefully. thank God nothing serious happened to him, but man he needs to make better decisions.
Thank God. Lucky Lucky lucky man. Errol, remember to wear your god damn seatbelt and watch your speed!!! Your alot luckier than the NFL player Ken Norton jr. Who lost his arm in a car crash and can never play ball again.
I think not wearing the seatbelt might have saved him. If you see the car tumble and he would have been in it the whole time, he might have not survived.
Thats a good point but we’ll never know
No roof and car rolling multiple times..no belt saved his ass.
Glad he’s on the mend. To escape from such an horrific looking incident with practically no damage is pretty miraculous.
Also very lucky that no one else got injured. Hopefully this will serve as a huge wake up call
Hope he recovers fully. Some fighters like, for example; Felix Verdejo, are never the same after a car or motorcycle accident.
Rest up Champ, stay your ass at home with your family and in the gym with your team, and in church with your savior, everything else is trouble. Come on now, let this be a lesson. You’re our hero, come on, get it together.
Lucky guy. He’ll probably be out until the summer of next year and may need a tune-up first to shake off a little rust. But, it sounds like he’ll be able to resume his career at the championship level. The next time he wants to go fast, a guy with his kind of clout in the DFW metroplex, should be able to book an appointment at the Texas motor speedway. He could have killed somebody including himself, so either Spence had been drinking or he’s not such a good person after all. Anybody who drives over a hundred miles an hour+ on a highway in a city as big as Dallas, is a person who has a healthy disregard for the safety of other people.
Chris, everything points to the fact that he may have been under the influence. But only he knows. I don’t think he’s a bad person or stupid, he just made a stupid decision. Hopefully he learns his lesson.
I don’t B E L I E V E this carnival. There is a santa story smell to this. You all can be gullible if you like. The injuries do — not match that car. Talk about propping a new propaganda.
Coach Hilario, love your comments, but come on. How can you say this propaganda. There’s a video out there of the car rolling. The guy is lucky to only come out with what he did. Hopefully the influential people in his life give him a whopping and he learns his lesson.
Stop for a moment and think. Match the vehicle’s current state to his physical. Show me the evidentiary [ proof, teach me how ] this can happen in the sense of the speed said person was traveling and to be ejected thereof. At such speed and for not one pinky fracture.
I’m not looking for the [ worst ] physical state [or news]. All I’m [ highlighting ] is the speed and ejection does not match his post ejection description. People are so gullible, they do not stop to D I S C E R N, breathe and weigh with honest scales. No way a human is traveling at a high speed [announced] to cause that vehicle damage and then one is without high drama wear and tear.
[ Unless he was in a full body – injury proof crash dummy-type outfit and even then, bones can still be broken. ]
Exactly what I am thinking. To only have some “minor bruises and broken teeth” I really hope that is true but those injuries do not match that type of accident.
There are always people like you with your propaganda idea, the guy just made a bad decision at the wrong time in a very fast car. He was blessed to be alive I believe in seat belts but maybe this time being ejected saved his life. Thank you God for looking over this young mans life.
You are one lucky man!
Anyone who speeds, gets no sympathy from me. These are the people that can wipe families out, and often just drive on, without stopping, when they hit someone.
I’m glad he’s ok but I think his chin is shot
He may be a good boxer, but a terrible driver…… Lesson learned……Slow down, wear a seatbelt, and be RESPONSIBLE….Leave the racing to the professional drivers…
I think not wearing the seatbelt might have saved him. If you see the car tumble and he would have been in it the whole time, he might have not survived.
By law I heard Spence since now on is not allowed to drive sport cars, being a steamroller the only vehicle he can drive, if he decides to drive again.
Im praying for u and your family your a strong person inside out and there is no fight u can’t win Your family needs you fight buddy love you
I kind of think when these guys have fights they shouldn’t be out driving. (Spence, and prior Corrales and Paul Williams on motorcycles). Taking head punches cannot be good for your ability to go out and drive. To me, Spence should just say he is a miracle man, and walk away from the sport. Nobody can blame him. He’s made the money to be driving a car like that. I am fine for Spence and Pacquiao to walk away from the game. Spence is really lucky he could fight again if he wanted, but why bother? He should just walk out, and could always decide to train again 1 year from now, and see if he really wants to do it. Kind of like Maidana, he trained up real hard to look good back home, but said he isn’t about boxing anymore. Jorge Castro, a former WBA middleweight boxing champion, he was a race car driver who was once a stylish boxer, but got injured badly in a race car crash, that is why Bobby Czyz called him a junk fighter when he was lulling everyone to sleep when he fought John DAvid Jackson, and then stopped him right before the fight was going to get waved off. Spence should really count his blessings, why take punches and defend titles when he is lucky, so lucky.
Professional neurologic opinion: he now has irreversible brainstem damage that will entirely impair his ability to ever fight at the previous level.
Let me preface this by stating I’m very glad the young man has been blessed to continue living. That said, what always strikes me are the exceedingly emotional posts towards a complete stranger. That’s well and good, but I’m always left with the question are these same people as attentive and caring towards friends and members of their family? I would like to think so but I’m not so sure..
My prayers were answered – earl is okay and able to return to the ring. God spared him – food for thought. No more drinking.
