Zero Hype in Riyadh: Canelo Alvarez vs. William Scull PPV tries to capture the interest of fans

The poorly promoted fight between Canelo Alvarez and William Scull takes place on Saturday, May 3, and their event on Dazn PPV in Riyadh is no noise.

Marketing failure

Promoters had no effort to build interest among fans for this fight, which costs $ 59.99 for Pay-Per-view. Fans do not know who is the super middle champion IBF Scull (23-0.9 KO), because he never overcame any significant objection during his career.

The way Cuban Scull, 32, won the belt with a controversial 12-round decision in October last year against Vladimir Shishkin, makes boxing fans perceive him as a false belt owner.

– Cristian Fabian Rios
– Abel Nicolas Adriel
– Evgeny Shvedenko
– Deneb Diaz

For Canelo, 34, this fight is to enable him to recover his title IBF 168-Funt, who gave up so that he could choose an straightforward fight with the former Edgar Berlang No. 1 November 14 last year. Instead of defending himself against his mandatory Scull, Canelo, he slowed down so that he could face Berlang in mismatch.

The unquestionable art

The problem is with System of four stripes. Canelo is necessary for Canelo to take up a lasting fight with Scull to regain her IBF title in another flawless fight. This is all for an art Thus, Alvarez can be the undisputed 168-Funt champion when he faces Crawford in October at “Huge Fight” in Las Vegas, Turks Alalshikh.

Part of the marketing of the Canelo-Crawford fight will focus on whether Crawford can capture its third unquestionable division championship. Everything is more interested in the circus fight between Alvarez and Bud, which appears from 154 to challenge him without any experience at the age of 168. This is completely unfair to pretenders in Super Middle weight.

Alvarez is a favorite of 30 to 1 against Scull, showing that this fight will not even be remotely competitive. For fans who saw Scull’s last fight with Vladimir Shishkin, it is not surprising that Canelo is a great favorite. Scull looked terrible.

What the promotion needs so that Crawford leaves the woodwork this week and start talking to Canelo so that the fan will wait for their fight in October. If Bud Crawford can make people predict this competition, they will be more motivated to focus on Saturday’s clash with Scull.

I doubt if Crawford will be created to lend a hand, because it is not promoted by fights, which is one of the reasons why it has not become popular. He is lucky that Turki likes him. If it wasn’t for this, Crawford would work at the age of 154, dealing with adolescent sharks such as Bakhram Murtazaliev and Vergil Ortiz Jr.

Tyson Fury “without rush” to come back: “I am retired”

Published

Tyson Fury said that he was not in a hurry to return to sport and that he was going to remain retired, hoping that he would agree to fight Anthony Joshua.

The 36-year-old Fury announced his last boxing retirement in January after defeats with Oleksandr Usyk.

However, this was not the first time he called his career, which led to speculation that he could return to the ring again for a lucrative fight with Joshua.

“The Gypsy King” suggested a possible return on many occasions, including last month in which he published a film about himself at the gym with coach Sugarhill Steward and said “You know what is coming.”

But the Fury, who is on vacation in Como in Italy Video published on Instagram.

“I hear a lot of conversations about Gypsy King returning to boxing. Why would I return? More boxing belts? I won 22 of them,” he said. “… but I’m joyful, I’m joyful, joyful with what I achieved, what I achieved. I was around the world and came back.

“This is how a pension looks like a gypsy king. He is not too shabby. I was not in a hurry [to] boxing and fall in my face. What for? Why would I come back? I ask this question. So here we are. I am retired and I am retired. I have nothing to prove to anyone and nothing to return. “

Tyson Fury ends distrust of retirement

Tyson Fury finally ended constant distrust, with whom he would be a heavyweight master, with whom he appeared every time he retired.

“The Gypsy King” took the opportunity to end speculation when his family took vacation to Lake Como.

Fury announced his decision to leave after losing to Oleksander Usyk for the second time in December. The two -time statement of the world ruler met with solemn skepticism.

Many thought that Fury would return, as the previous one did four times. Not so, according to the 36-year-old.

This time the fury is dead when he stays away from afar and gives anyone satisfaction with the saying: “I told you that.”

“Why would I come back, more belts? I won 22 of them,” said Fury in a film showing the stunning surroundings. “I was printed, that’s all, Fair Plaka for them, they used me.

“But I’m ecstatic, I’m ecstatic, ecstatic with what I achieved and achieved. I was around the world and came back.

“And this is how a pension looks like a gypsy king, not very shabby. I was not in a hurry to go back to boxing and hit my face. Why would I return? I ask this question.”

Fury’s words are rejected by reports about the offer to face Anthony Joshua in Wembley and the potential fourth clash from Deontay Wilder.

Both fights were strongly on the horizon if Fury decides to do what he always does and return.

Doubts are heavily raised in their places, because Fury makes his retirement a unchanging romance, stating that he will never fight again.

“I am retired and I am retired. I have nothing to prove to anyone and there is no return for them,” he concluded.

Joshua and Wilder can be at a loose end by the end of this year after confirming Fury. They can go to each other again to make another payment.

Wilder must go through Tyrrell Herndon on June 27, before Joshua is able to think about making any progress.

The “brown bomber” is open to the fight offer in Great Britain, although after the fall of the clash in 2018.

Promoters Ituma eye bakole figh: too far, too far, too early?

Published

Image: Itauma's Promoters Eye Bakole Fight: A Step Too Far, Too Soon?

Promoter Francis Warren says he is “absolutely” interested in the fight between a hefty weight claimant Martin Bakole And Moses Itauma. He says that if there is a fight with Bakole (21-2-1, 16 KO), “it will catch it with both hands” for Ituma (11-0, 9 Kos).

Until now, ITAUMA promoters show interest in Bakoler 300 LB, but will they sing another melody when it becomes functional, cutting up to the low years 280.? I would not be surprised if they did not want to get to know the bacon when he returned to the appearance, like a slim tiger who crushed the American hefty weight, Jared Anderson, in August last year.

ITAUMA opponents problem

Ituma will fight with the 10-tenthest one against Mike Balogun on Saturday, May 24, at SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland. The event will be shown live in Dazn. Balogun (21-1, 16 KO) is a former NFL player with circumscribed experience and will be over his head against Itum. This is another example of the opposition that Ituma is fed.

“He is a tough guy. People give some criticism, but the Balogun may hit,” said the promoter Francis Warren Boxing TalkSport About the opponent of Moses Itaum, Mike Balogun, on Saturday. “He is an athlete. He is a former NFL player, so he is a naturally talented athlete and is wearing a great engine. He has great scouts.”

Balogun is completely unknown and disturbing is that Ituma is tailored to this kind of opposition. It would not be a huge deal if it was undetectable and was not excited as it is. But in the way British public opinion talked about Itaum, one might think that he had already captured the title of world champion and defended him half a dozen times.

“The only person who defeated him is Gassiev. He has 21-1. You can only overcome what is ahead of you. The guy who is ahead of him on Saturday evening is a phenomenon, Moses Itaum. Yes, we all expect Moses Itauma to go through it, but how does he go through it? Said Warren.

Gassiew knocked out Balogun in the second round in 2023. Certainly, the management of Ituma could find someone better than the Balogun.

Why does Ituma fight for little -known warriors, such as Balogun instead of actual rivals? With the way he is excited, he should have already been fighting pretenders at this stage in his career, and not with giving him the opposition.

Ituma should devote time to lap, because in the first round he knocked out five of the last seven opponents. The reason for this is matches. 20 -year -old Moses is tailored to tomato cans and is unable to boost better opposition. Finally, when Ituma faces someone who has real talent, he will fall apart like his brother, Karol, when he fought the first decent opponent in half.

The promoter wants to fight the bacols

“Let’s do it. Of course” Francis said asked if he would be interested in the fight between Itaum and Martin Bakole. “Until huge guys come, Moses learns. If Hrgovic or Bakols appear at some point this year, we will catch it with both hands, if we both agree that this is the right fight for Moses at that time.”

If ITAUMA vs. Bakole, Moses’ promoters could regret it. Ituma is not ready to fight even in the bacon version by 300 pounds. The first enormous bacon shot would probably pay Itauma and end his career as it is.

Coach Bakole, Billy Nelson, wants him to train before he is ready to fight Itaum at the end of the year. Until then, Bakole probably cut it until the mid -1980s and will be in the same condition in which he was when he destroyed Jared Anderson in August last year.

“Maybe he avoided because the fights are too challenging to do, because Billy is stalling all the time,” said Warren.

When the bacon is in shape, it is hazardous for everyone hefty in the division. Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury, the two were aging Masters, never showed any interest in the fight against Bakole. They knew that he would break their career if they made a mistake, agreeing to fight him. Instead, they both played safely, fighting smaller guys and avoiding Bakole.
