The more important thing is that Spence is alive and doesn’t have any injuries that would impede him living a productive and full life.
Spence is a father to two little girls and the fact that he is able to hold them is indeed a miracle.
In regard to his fighting career, we simply won’t know what affect the accident will have on him until he is back in the ring.
He plans for that to be sooner than later.
“I’m fighting around May, June, so I’ll be back real soon,” Spence said. “I already started training last week, and I’m feeling good. I hit the mitts and everything and ran, too. I’m feeling good, so I can continue training.
“My body actually feels good,” Spence said. “Now I think I’m rejuvenated, and I’m ready to get back in the gym and train hard and hopefully fight one of the top fighters. I don’t want a tune-up fight. I want to fight [titleholder Manny] Pacquiao or [former titlist Danny] Garcia if he wins his fight [against Ivan Redkach on Jan. 25]. I want to fight Danny Garcia. I was supposed to fight him in January, but I had my accident. That’s the guys I’m looking to fight.
“No restrictions at all. I’ve been cleared. They did all types of scans on me. They think it’s a miracle. I can’t explain it. All I got to do is thank God that I’m here. I’m healthy, I can touch my kids and kiss them, and I’m here with my mother and my father and I can give the fans what they’ve been wanting. They’ve been wanting me to come back, and I’ll definitely put on a great show when I do come back. The second time around, I’m not gonna take anything for granted.”
