Although he is a super middle champion IBF, William Scull does not even receive a diminutive percentage of his opponent’s respect this weekend. Because Scull will have to be the only one, and only Canelo Alvarez on Saturday in Saudi Arabia. Most perceive the fight for the title as a fundamentally loved melody, because Canelo was considered in some circles to take care of Terenka Crawford. With an undefeated record – it is clear, however, that Scull should be seen as more than a busy opponent in the future Hall of Fame Canelo. Despite this, there is a reasonable reason why SCULL 23-0 should be seen as a weaker for this weekend.

While some can argue that he is no longer in this zenith, Canelo met with one opponent at the highest level after the other during his legendary career. Finally, he defeated Sergey Kovalev and Miguel Cotto and Callum Smith and Caleb Plant, as well as Amir Khan and Austin Trout and Erislanda Lara and who knows how many other names or great opponents over the past decade. This is equal to experience, which, to be candid, can compare in the up-to-date boxing scene.

However, Scull can simply have a style that can have trouble with Canelo. He is a lofty, velvety Southpaw, Scull is more a technician than an artist with a knockout. And Canelo didn’t always have the best nights against ring tactics. Lara gave the man a real run for one for her money, and the swift Amir Khan also rightly had forceful moments against Canelo. And let’s not forget about the chess master Floyd Mayweather, who in 2013 taught a much younger and inexperienced version of Canelo. On the other hand, it was a Mayweather. No one else, except for Dmitry Bivol, was able to generally dominate Canelo in such a way … and Canelo fought Bivol in a lightweight weighty weight.

Canelo-Scull will be the main event of the Pay Per View card on Saturday. Don’t expect the event to break any sales records. However, if Scull shocks the world of an upset win, you can be sure that the rematch will bring a lot of dollars and eyeballs. Do you expect a nervous win this weekend? Probably. When these shots of Canelo’s bodies start to land, he is a tough man to stop. Virtually anything can happen in the ring, which makes Canelo-Scull worth paying attention.

Daniel Dubois said that the blow that Oleksandr Usyk raised in their first fight – who was recognized by a low -blow judge – was legal and came “from the gods” when he was preparing for revenge in their rematch.

Both will fight for the undisputed heavyweight championship on July 19 at Wembley Stadium.

Usyk (23-0, 14 KO) won his first fight against Nokaut in round 9 and conveniently overtook the tools of results.

However, the fight was overshadowed by a controversial low hit, which was an emotional topic before their rematch.

Coach Dubois, Don Charles, said that Usyk “turned” to the judge with his reaction to the impact, which led to a scorching exchange between two camps at the Tuesday press conference.

Dubois himself (22-2, 21 KO) is convinced that it was a legal blow.

“I went through this shot, it was like a blow to the gods,” said Dubois Media.

“You saw him in the past, you wounded in the body, but I do not intend to go crazy because of this because everyone is talking about a shot from the body. They will expect it. So I have to mix it.”

Dubois called the “uninteresting” utyk and said that his mental endurance would not be enough against his power in July.

“These Ukrainians, perform all his mind and control over the mind, so I have to be right physically, spiritually, and that’s enough at night,” he said.

“He is always in it [mind games]. I think he is a uninteresting guy. He is at home, making his mind —. You just have to beat him in the ring.

“When they feel real pain and warmth, you can break through it [metal strength.] You can do everything with God’s power on your side. “

Usyk, who is deeply religious, was dissatisfied with Dubois’s claim that his blow came from force majeure.

“God bless you Daniel, God bless you, elderly,” said the media with a weighty sigh. “He shouldn’t have said that.”

After the victories with Tyson Fury, questions arose about what the Utyk remained to achieve in sport.

The Ukrainian said that within two weeks of the rematch against fury he was a boxing of shadows and asked his wife to hit him on vacation.

Asked if Dubois could find a weakness to attack his body, Uyk joked through his translator: “I have a weakness, but no one will ever find out about this weakness except me.

“This weakness is hidden in the egg, and the egg is hidden in the dog, and the dog is hidden in the dragon, so you can’t find it.”
