Errol Spence expects to fight the Danny Garcia-Shawn Porter winner

IT feels good to be fighting back at home in Dallas. This is where I started and where my core fan base is. Itโ€™s great to fight in front of my people and even better that I can do it as a world champion now.

I wanted to make my first title defense in Dallas, but everything happens for a reason and now I have this great opportunity to fight at the Dallas Cowboysโ€™ facility. Itโ€™s an incredible venue that has everything you would want. Itโ€™s going to be a great atmosphere on June 16.

Weโ€™re working hard on our game plan and sharpening our skills in camp to make sure Iโ€™m the best version of myself when I step into the ring against Carlos Ocampo.

Timing is key in boxing. Itโ€™s more important than speed and itโ€™s something I really focus on when Iโ€™m training. Itโ€™s timing and accuracy. You can be fast but if you donโ€™t land, it doesnโ€™t mean anything.

Iโ€™m a versatile fighter who is able to switch it up. I can box from the outside but also go on the inside. These are things that weโ€™re always working on in the gym. Our opponent may bring something different than we expected into the ring, so we work on having a plan for everything.

Itโ€™s great to have another world champion like Jermell Charlo in camp with me. Iron sharpens iron and we just work hard every day so that we can push each other to the next level. All of that helps me become victorious.

I wouldnโ€™t say I have one skill that sticks out the most in my arsenal. Iโ€™m a balanced boxer who can do everything. I can jab, throw a combo and show strong defense. I balance all of the attributes you need in the ring and thatโ€™s what makes me a great boxer.

Iโ€™ve been putting this division on notice for a while. June 16 is another day that weโ€™re going to give another one-sided performance and dominate. Iโ€™ve had the welterweight division on notice since my first fight. They know Iโ€™m here.

Whoever wins the fight between Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter for the WBC title will have to fight me. Iโ€™m ready to unify. Iโ€™m ready to take the belt from either one of those guys.โ€
