Days After Getting Released From Jail, Terence Crawford’s Trainer BoMac Makes Bold Claim on Rumored Errol Spence Jr Rematch in February

Fresh out of an unexpected legal whirlwind in the UK, Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre, Terence Crawford’s esteemed trainer, is already making waves. As the boxing world eagerly anticipates a Terence Crawford vs. Errol Spence Jr. rematch, BoMac dropped some tantalizing teasers. Known for his unabashed confidence, his recent chat with Fight Hub TV was no exception. But a statement he made about weight classes raised eyebrows.

“If it happened at 122 pounds…,” he hinted, leaving the boxing community in a curious frenzy. Adding to the enigma, this interview followed days after his brush with British law, which saw a firearm mistakenly tucked in his luggage. Combining courtroom drama with boxing’s intense rivalry, BoMac’s bold proclamations are stirring up quite a storm.

Is history set to repeat in the rematch?

The boxing community hasn’t forgotten the electric showdown between Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. earlier this year. The bout, touted as one of the most anticipated face-offs, didn’t go as many had predicted. Instead of a balanced back-and-forth, Crawford dominated, sending Spence to the canvas thrice before clinching the undisputed welterweight title in a riveting ninth-round stoppage. The fight further elevated Crawford’s undefeated status and handed Spence his first-ever professional defeat.

Against this backdrop, the rumor mills have been abuzz about a potential rematch. And it was amidst this speculation that Fight Hub TV approached Crawford’s trainer, BoMac, for some insight. The ensuing conversation did not disappoint.

The Interviewer inquired, “Everybody keeps on talking about the potential rematch. Are we gonna see it? What’s the status of that?”

Brian “BoMac” McIntyre confidently responded, “Listen, when the rematch is gonna happen, mark my words, the same thing is going to happen.” Seeking clarity on weight classes, the interviewer pressed, “Even at 154 Bomac? Even at 160?”

BoMac, not missing a beat, proclaimed, “If that happened at 160, if that happened at 147, if it happened at 122 pounds, it’s still gonna be the same damn thing.” The strong assertions by BoMac not only underline the confidence within Team Crawford but also set the stage for what could be another unforgettable bout.

Terence Crawford sets the stage for the rematch

In the aftermath of their explosive encounter, Errol ‘The Truth’ Spence Jr. was quick to invoke the rematch clause against Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford. The clause, as stipulated, allowed the defeated contender a second shot within 30 days. But the catch was in the weight category. While Spence Jr. proposed an ascent to 154 pounds, Crawford wasn’t quite on the same page.

Finally, putting an end to the weighty speculation, Crawford confirmed the rematch would remain in the welterweight division. “He exercised his rematch [clause], and that’s the fight that’s supposed to happen next,” Crawford remarked, hinting at a December date. He further clarified his stance on the weight class, stating Spence Jr. hadn’t made a formal written request for a change. The reigning champion seemed resolute: this duel would mirror the conditions of their first showdown.
