Families that hold a niche in the sport of boxing are not uncommon in the world. Take for instance the Mayweather family. Legacy families hold a special sort of dynamic within the industry. They are not just active in the boxing ring but are active stakeholders in how the industry transitions into the future. And of course, it is not unfamiliar to see a boxer foster a sense of belonging to the sport through family tradition. Errol Spence Jr. might be on his path to do just that. His kids frequently visit him at the boxing gym. Moreover, last year,  Spence’s one-year-old son was seen wearing boxing gloves and learning how to box.

The highly anticipated match is all set to create history.
