IBF orders for Canelo to face mandatory challenger William Scull

Not even David Morrell or Christian M’Billi…

IBF orders Canelo Alvarez to face mandatory challenger William Scull

 

Mbilli would get destroyed by clenelo

 

scull waited his turn and earned his shot.

 

Last Thing Canelo Needs is an EXCUSE to Face Inferior Opposition...

@Xplosive looks like a definite PPV buy here.

 

What I love about Scull is just how recognizable he is. Not only is he already one of the biggest names in the sport, but his physiognomy alone makes it obvious that he is someone special.

 

I already pre-ordered.

 

I actually bought it a few times so I could make sure I didn't miss any action all through the house.

 

I’m convinced that the reason for giving this guy the mandatory slot is because of the name Scull.

 

Lol that's what I was thinking. They just gave him a way out of the Benevidez fight in 2024.

 

But it's not a real out because he could just give up the title if he cared about fans.

 

He should throw the belt in the trashcan

 

Let's be honest here. Canelo fighting some tomato can for a mandatory? Look, we can't pretend the alphabet organizations are paragons of respectability. They're part of the problem. Do genuine boxing aficionados even give a second thought to belts these days? They're so watered down, it's hard to argue they hold any real significance anymore.

 

Fight of the year party at George's.

 

Belts are definitely losing importance, which isn’t good imo. If it’s not some undeserving guy somehow rising through the ranks to be food for one of the top guys, it’s a guy who doesn’t want to honor his mandatory of 2 plus years.

Social media popularity also plays a role. Guys like Tank don’t wanna fight to be the best, for instance. They just want to be famous celebrities and make easy bags with no risk attached.

Classic Mayweather blueprint.

 

Agreed.

So what are you bringing to George's FOY party?
