Undisputed super-middleweight champion and debatable ‘face of boxing’, Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, can be pressured to make an enormous determination within the coming days, along with his plans for 2024 anticipated to be derailed by an unlikely contender that few anticipated he would face.

After an eyebrow-raising run of performances since defeat to Dmitry Bivol in 2022, Alvarez bounced again with a robust show towards Jaime Munguia earlier this month – though the unanimous-decision win meant that Canelo had gone the gap for a fifth struggle in a row, for the primary time in his 65-fight profession.

Nonetheless, Alvarez’s win over Munguia silenced doubters and reassured followers that his dominance at 168lbs will proceed, particularly now that David Benavidez and David Morrell have moved as much as light-heavyweight. Canelo was anticipated to face both Edgar Berlanga or Terence Crawford on his subsequent outing, till Cuba’s undefeated William Scull intervened.

As with many Cuban’s passed by, Scull adopts a standard back-footed fashion that makes it robust to promote a struggle between he and Canelo Alvarez – who’s perceived to be many ranges above ‘El Indomable’.

But, that fashion has confirmed efficient for the 31-year-old, who has not been defeated in his 22 bouts up to now and turned the necessary challenger for the IBF super-middleweight title when he outpointed Evgeny Shvedenko (15-0) in July 2022.

Virtually two years later, it seems as if Scull has flown beneath the radar however that his endurance has paid dividends, as purse bids have been known as for him to disrupt Canelo’s plans and problem the Mexican pound-for-pound sensation for the undisputed super-middleweight throne, Dan Rafael reviews.
