Errol Spence Jr. Accused of Failing to Compensate Trainer for Terence Crawford Bout
Former unified Welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr. is facing accusations of not paying his trainer Derrick James for his services during the Terence Crawford fight. James, who has recently revealed that he has not been in touch with Spence Jr., has shifted his focus to training other fighters.
Matchmaker Rick Glaser alleged that Spence Jr. has not settled James' fees for the past bout. Meanwhile, Spence Jr. is reportedly seeking a new coach as he looks to move forward with his career.
In an interview with Cigar Talk, James shared that he had not spoken to Spence Jr. for several weeks, stating that he is now focused on his other clients. When asked about the possibility of a rematch between Spence Jr. and Crawford, James commented that it would be a worthwhile fight.
However, Glaser's claim about unpaid fees has cast a shadow over the situation. Spence Jr. has yet to address these allegations or comment on the matter.
Calvin Ford, who trains fighter Gervonta Davis, expressed his willingness to coach Spence Jr. if given permission by James. It remains to be seen how the relationship between Spence Jr. and James will develop and if they are able to resolve any issues.
