Spence is scheduled to return against Tim Tszyu on July 25 in Australia. While many observers have focused on the damage from his 2023 loss to Terence Crawford and the years spent out of the ring, Prograis believes one other factor might be just as vital.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIf he said that already, one foot out, it\u2019s going to be hard to come back back in,\u201d said Prograis to The Punch Podcast. \u201cWhat makes you fall in love again? What makes you be obsessive about that again? In the event you did all the things already?<\/p>\n

\u201cTim Tszyu, they\u2019re not fighting for a belt. They\u2019re not fighting for what? Just quite a lot of money. In the event you do it for the cash, that\u2019s at all times the fallacious reason.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Prograis identified that Spence has already completed greater than most fighters ever will, making it difficult to know whether the previous welterweight champion can recapture the mindset that helped him develop into one in every of boxing\u2019s elite names.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe old Errol Spence man was a killer, bro. People forget how good Errol Spence really was. Errol was a dog at one cut-off date. He was really an actual killer within the ring,\u201d said Prograis.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the old Errol comes back, I believe I got Errol Spence by a landslide.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prograis also noted that age eventually catches every fighter, no matter talent.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe speed leave you. The speed will leave you. Power at all times be there,\u201d said Prograis. \u201cThe reflexes, they do leave. That\u2019s the important thing you wish in boxing. The reflexes, the foot speed, the hand speed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Spence\u2019s inactivity has often been linked to the Crawford defeat, but Prograis suggested motivation often is the larger query. Fighters who still need titles, money, or recognition often find their way back quickly. Spence already has all three.<\/p>\n

That’s the reason his fight with Tszyu may reveal less about what Crawford took from him and more about whether boxing still gives him something price chasing.<\/p>\n
