ARLINGTON, Texas — Errol Spence Jr. had to go the distance to defend his IBF welterweight title for the third time. Still, the outcome was never in doubt for one of the world’s best pound-for-pound boxers.
Spence improved to 25-0 after all three judges awarded him every round. One card was 120-107, and the other two were 120-108. The hard-punching Spence landed 345 of the 1,082 punches he threw — both of those career highs. That included 237 of 464 of his power punches in his second title defence at home in North Texas in nine months.
Garcia threw 406 total punches, and landed only 75 . After landing 43 per cent of his power punches his previous five fights, he was only 25 per cent on those against Spence. Both fighters entered the arena to loud cheers and different kinds of music, with Spence following a local high school marching band. Garcia got plenty of support from the large number of Mexican fans at the fight.
