IBF Super mid -weight champion William Scull reiterated during the Grand Arrivals in Riyadh today that he intends to ‘Eat‘Unified 168 Pound Champ Canelo Alvarez in their undisputed championship fight on Saturday 3 May Dazn ppv In Saudi Arabia.
Spoiling Crawford?
Scull (23-0, 9 costs) says his goal is to defeat Canelo (62-2-2, 39 COs) and close “a few mouths” of people who wrote him off. He wants to jerk his three belts and his October “Big Fight” against Terence crawford.
That game can still happen, but without any super -middle weight titles on the line. It is on Turki Alalshikh if he wants to go through his plans to set up the high prices Canelo-Crawford match with Alvarez that has a loss.
“I don’t want to be respectful, but I’m here to win, and that’s it. I’m going to eat him, ‘William Scull told the media during today’s Great arrivalsLet people know that he plans to “eat” Canelo Alvarez on Saturday night in Riyadh.
“Now I’m focused on what I have to do. I am very excited because I am here to close a few mouths and do what I have to do on Saturday. ‘
Although only two years separates the 32-year-old Scull and Canelo, 34, there is a big difference in the number of miles they have on them. The Mexican star, Alvarez, had many wars during his long career against fighters like Gennadiy Golovkin. He is now beginning to show the wear and tear of those battles.
“Looking for the best?”
“I’m always looking for the best, and I know something really good for me is,” Canelo said. ‘Mexican fighters go to countries other than the opponent. Now I’m the A side in Saudi Arabia, and it opens the door to other fighters from Mexico. ‘
Canelo is more than a little ominous about him “always looking for the best.” He actually stopped tackling the ‘best’ after his loss of Dmitri Biscvol in 2022. The defeat has taken away Alvarez’s risk capacity. What remains is a non-risk-taking Canelo, which has been on a glorified pension tour ever since.
“It makes me feel proud to bring it to my country. I am here to make history and motivate myself at this point in my career. As I always say that I am proud to bring the Mexican flag everywhere I go,” Alvarez said.
“Canelo is used to fighting long fighters. There is nothing that man has not seen in 66 battles. No, he will not be surprised,” said commentator Sergio Mora and asked that he be able to handle the height and reach of Scull.
‘The man will have to find magic in the bottle to do something special that only two fighters, two large fighters, two unbeaten fighters, could do against Canelo Alvarez. We’ll see if he can do it. ‘
