This time last year, Errol Spence was an unbeaten, unified welterweight titlist and Derrick James the reigning Trainer of the Year.

Derrick James has filed a lawsuit against Errol Spence with the Dallas County District Court. James, the 2022 Trainer of the Year, seeks damages in excess of $5,000,000, nearly half from what he believes he's still owed from Terence Crawford fight last July.

Told that, despite original DKP press release indicating as such, Chaney-Hunter was never approved as—or even discussed for—an interim WBA title fight. Chaney was ordered to face Martin Bakole in title eliminator. Chaney-Hunter is, simply, a heavyweight fight.

Still not used to Al Haymon and 'His Excellency' (Turki Alalshikh) being thanked in the same sentence, never mind in the same convo. Two mentions and counting so far at this press conference.

My Bible of Boxing story on Matchroom Boxing claiming promotional rights to Jaron 'Boots' Ennis-Cody Crowley IBF welterweight title fight. Matchroom ($3,910,000) nearly doubled up TGB ($2,000,000) during today's purse bid.

Matchroom outbid TGB Promotions - by nearly double - to secure rights to IBF welterweight title fight. Ennis and Crowley both due career-best paydays.
