Alvarez to fight Scull in Saudi unification bout - Nigeria News Update

Canelo Alvarez will fight William Scull on May 3 in Saudi Arabia for the undisputed super middleweight championship, as announced by Turki Alalshikh, the chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority.
Alvarez, who has a record of 62-2-2, was previously in negotiations to fight Jake Paul but pulled out of those talks, stating that the match was not right for his legacy.
William Scull, an undefeated fighter with a record of 23-0, will challenge Alvarez for the IBF title, which Alvarez had declined to defend last year.
Alvarez's four-fight deal includes a future match against Terence Crawford on September 13 in Las Vegas, reshaping the boxing landscape after his withdrawal from the Paul fight.
