“He intends to eat blows”: a powerful response of Canelo Alvarez to William Scull’s claims about his fall before the unquestioned fight for the title
Published

Canelo Alvarez claims that the super medium weight master IBF William Scull will be the one who eats the blows in his undisputed fight for the 168-pound championship on Saturday, at Dazn PPV in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Age question
Scull (23-0, 9 KO) boasts what he intends “eat” The aging Canelo, who thinks, is no longer a warrior he once was. He believes that in the last few years he has lost a lot of the game, which is true. The Mexican star has been approaching 35 and has been in professionals for 20 years since 2005. Thus, Sculla’s observations regarding its aging can be essential.
Alvarez looked like the shadow of his former self in his last fights with Edgar Berlang, Jaime Munguia and Jermell Charlo. The knockout, which Canelo used, disappeared, and he worked on winning the decision.
Some boxing fans believe that the unilateral beating he took from the then heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol in 2022, pulled the best out of it, leaving the shell that we saw in his last three competitions.
Canelo still wins, but only because he was very selective in the opposition he met. He kept teenage killers, David Benavidez and David Morrell, when they both fought at the age of 168. It helped Alvarez stay at the top a little longer.
Canelo’s answer
“You will eat blowsThis is what he will eat – said Canelo Alvarez IFL TVResponding to William Scull, saying that he intends to “eat” Canelo on Saturday evening in the fight in Riyadh.
Canelo seemed surprised and amused by Scull about how he “eats” him on Saturday evening. The Mexican Supergivid is not used to their opponents that sound so boldly with their fighting forecasts, but shows how much Cuban Scull wants this fight. This means everything to him.
Motivation and money
Scull did not create millions that he has a mega-Bogate Canelo during his eight-year professional career. According to Forbes, the net value of Alvarez is estimated at $ 275 million. This number can easily double in the next three years with the fighting against Terenka Crawford, Chris Eubank Jr., Hamzah Sheeraz, Dmitry Blivol and David Benavidez. Scull can spoil the Canelo cash train, beating it on Saturday.
“He [Scull] He was asked earlier this week what he thinks about Canelo Alvarez, and he said: “Look, he slowed down. He doesn’t throw so many blows. He is not as good as it used to be, and I can beat him – said commentator Todd Grisham DaznSpeaking of Scull’s observation about Alvarez at the beginning of this week, noting that he shows deterioration in his game.
“He is a little older and slowed down. I think he is among the 10 best fighters in the world,” said Chris Mannix about Canelo.

Carl Frampton believes that Josh Taylor will decide not to fight again after losing to Ekow Essuman in a nervous 12-round unanimous loss on Saturday evening at SEZ Hydro, Glasgow, Scotland. It was the third defeat of Taylor in a row and it was a fight he was supposed to win. The results were 116-112, 116-113 and 115-113.
Essuman (22-1, 8 KO) is far from the elite or even warrior at level A, but it was too well conditioned for the 34-year-old Taylor’s Titedring (19-3, 12 KO). The losing to this level of the warrior was a bitter pill for the former undisputed welterweight champion, Taylor. He looked depressed when the results were announced because he knew what the results meant his career.
Frampton doubts Taylor’s return
“I don’t think so. This guy was the elite of the elite and he was a star. It is obvious that he is not a warrior he once was,” said Carl Frampton Boxing DAZN Asked if Josh Taylor could ever fight again after losing to Ekow Essuman on Saturday evening in Glasgow.
The problem is that Taylor has lost a lot from the game. It is more a coincidence that it is never overrated to start with. If you look at his best winnings, he did not defeat outstanding fighters in 2017–2022. Taylor’s best wins were against these fighters in this five -year period:
– Jack Cattell
– King of program
– Jose Ramirez
– Ivan Baranchik
– Viktor Postol
– Miguel Vazquez
“It depends on his dreams and ambitions. I think it was a world champion in two importance. But in such a performance I don’t think it is possible.”
The only chance of Taylor that he will become the world champion in two validity is that he will get the title shot against the winner of the clash between the WBC WBC Master Mario Barrios and Manny Pacquiao. This does not seem to happen after Josh’s loss with Essuman. In order for Taylor to win the title, he must come back and defeat someone good.
The Taylor engine works empty
“He had it for the first few rounds and that’s all,” said commentator Ade Oladipo about the fact that Taylor looks good in the first two or three rounds against Ekow, and then quickly disappears. “He looked piercing, he looked really good. The fact that Southpaw left, landed, and then the engine seemed empty very, very quickly,” said Ade about Josh.
In previous fights, Taylor did not show problems with his endurance. However, he was out of the ring for a year from his defeat with Jacek Cattell in May 2024 and he fought only four times since 2021. For a long time, it could be included in Taylor Gassing for a long time. It’s his fault. If Josh remained energetic, fighting three times a year from 2021, he probably wouldn’t have this problem.
“It was like a 2-liter engine against 1.6,” said Darren Barker, talking about Essuman, who has more energy than tired Taylor. “It was an engine that began to disappear. It was a good start to Taylor.”
It is strange that Essuman looked slowly, as if he did not spend any energy with the pace he fought for. However, he simply attacked Taylor, from time to time landing great shots, and it wore him. Taylor did not like to be hit by Essuman hefty shots.
“He was in a good groove, showing a real fire and such a will to win that we are used to Taylor. But as this fight progresses this man [Essuman]I wouldn’t say he was overwhelmed, but he released Taylor. Three or four shots for each of the Taylor – said Barker.
Ekow landed heavier arrows and landed in his body when Taylor fought closely, trying to stay.
