At the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on Saturday night, Errol Spence Jr. (20-0, 17 KO) achieved what Manny Pacquiao and Ruslan Provodnikov couldn't. Spence delivered a punishing and expert demolition to stop Chris Algieri (21-3) in the fifth round, securing a TKO victory. Spence sent Algieri to the canvas three times during the bout.
After a relatively slow opening round, Spence ramped up his attack in the second. The 26-year-old unleashed potent body shots and powerful straight rights that penetrated Algieri's defense. Spence scored the initial knockdown with a left hook to Algieri's right temple.
Although Algieri initially remained on his feet, he stumbled to the canvas moments later, visibly disoriented from the blow. Despite expressing frustration by pounding the canvas, Algieri managed to survive the fourth round, but his fate was sealed in the following round.
In the decisive fifth round, Spence pursued the finish relentlessly. A precise straight right hand sent Algieri down for the second time. Referee Benjy Esteves Jr. afforded Algieri an opportunity to recover, yet Algieri couldn't capitalize.
A thunderous right hand floored Algieri, causing him to slump against the ropes, prompting Esteves to halt the contest.
