Calvin Watkins prediction
"On Saturday night Tim Tszyu will face DeSoto's Errol Spence in a middleweight fight in Australia. This is Spence's first bout in three years. Tszyu and Spence have had some tough fights in the last couple years. And Spence, because of the three-year layoff, might have some ring rust. But he's got a fantastic trainer in Ronnie Shields that he hopes will kind of offset some of that stuff.
"This is gonna be a really close fight. Gonna be really competitive, I think. A lot to lose for both fighters.
"I think Spence will win it in a 12-round decision."
