Horrifying security video shows the moment champion boxer Errol Spence Jr. rolls his Ferrari

Spence is expected to survive after crashing his Ferrari while not wearing a seat belt

A pair of security videos have emerged showing world champion boxer Errol Spence Jr. flipping his Ferrari and being ejected onto the pavement before other drivers slowly weaved through his wreckage and around his motionless body. 

The 29-year-old unified welterweight champion was rushed to a Dallas-area hospital early Thursday morning and is expected to recover.  

KTVT’s J.D. Miles tweeted out both security videos, one of which shows Spence’s convertible speeding into view before rolling onto its side and out of frame, kicking up debris along the way. 

Another, longer video shows the aftermath of the crash in the distance as several cars meander through the wreckage and by Spence’s injured body.  

Spence, who was not wearing his seat belt, suffered broken teeth, according to Miles. The full extent of his injuries is not yet known.

The 29-year-old unified welterweight champion was on his way home from a nightclub when he crashed around 3am near I-30.  The impact of the crash is said to have thrown him out of his car along Riverfront Boulevard in Dallas. 

Police have not determined the cause of the accident. 

Spence was rushed to Methodist Dallas Medical Center and is expected to survive, according to police. 

Without identifying Spence, police said the driver of the car was not wearing his seat belt. His identity has since been confirmed by a spokesman for Premiere Boxing Champions, a televised boxing series that produces and distributes Spence’s fights. 

‘Errol was in an accident, and his parents are with him at the hospital,’ read a statement provided to the Daily Mail by PBC spokesman Tim Smith. ‘The doctors are monitoring his condition, but his injuries are not life-threatening. We will have further updates as the doctors update his condition. We’re all wishing the best for Errol.’

Pictures emerged Thursday morning showing the mangled white Ferrari surrounded by police and medics. 

Dallas Police released a statement early Thursday morning: ‘At 2:53am a Ferrari traveling at a high rate of speed northbound in the 500 S. Riverfront Blvd… The Ferrari veered left over the center median onto the southbound lanes and flipped multiple times ejecting the driver who was not wearing a seat belt.

‘The driver was taken to an area hospital where he is expected to live, but remains in ICU. The driver, a black male 29-years-old, was the only occupant in the vehicle. The name of the driver will be released at a later [time]. The cause of the accident is undetermined at this time.’ 

The white Ferrari appears to be the only car involved the accident.

Earlier in the evening Spence posted an Instagram Story showing a friend dancing in the Sidebar nightclub in Dallas.  

Spence has two young daughters, Ivy and Violet, but has always kept the identity of the girls’ mother and his marital status a closely-guarded secret. 

He was born in Long Island, but moved to Texas at the age of 2.

In 2017, Spence won the IBF world welterweight title by beating Kell Brook in the Englishman’s native Sheffield. Spence also holds the WBC world welterweight title after his recent split-decision victory over Shawn Porter.

The win moved Spence’s record to 26-0. The powerful southpaw also has knockout 21 victories.    

‘This is a lifetime dream,’ Spence said after his controversial win over Porter last month. ‘It shows hard work pays off. … Shawn Porter is a rough and awkward fighter. I didn’t get off what I wanted to. He’s a true champion. He made it tough … (but) all my punches have bad intentions.’ 

Porter reacted to the news on Twitter Thursday: ‘My dad always tells me ‘this boxing thing is a part of your life but it’s not going to last forever. U still have a lot of life to live after that.’ 

‘With that, I’m praying for @ErrolSpenceJr & his family because he has a lot of life to live and I pray he recovers quickly & fully.’   

Spence, a former Olympian, had been poised for a lucrative unification bout against undefeated WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford, who is considered by many to be the world’s top pound-for-pound boxer.   

‘Praying for you champ @ErrolSpenceJr,’ Crawford tweeted on Thursday. ‘I know you will.’
