Saul Canelo Alvarez successfully reclaimed the IBF super middleweight championship by defeating William Scull via unanimous decision, marking a pivotal moment in his boxing career. The victory sets the stage for a highly anticipated bout against former welterweight champion Terence Crawford scheduled for September. Despite Scull's height and reach advantages, he failed to effectively utilize them against Alvarez's persistent body attacks, leading to Scullâs first professional loss. Alvarez expressed dissatisfaction with the fight's lack of excitement, noting Scull's defensive strategy.
"For me, it's a boring fight. [Scull was] not trying to win, just trying to survive. I hate these kinds of fights," Alvarez stated after his victory.
"Don't let this guy get bigger and more confident," Alvarezâs corner urged him as Scull delivered effective counters, emphasizing the danger posed by his opponent.
