Canelo Alvarez to fight William Scull on May 3

sportingnews.com

Canelo Alvarez will fight William Scull in a big boxing event in Saudi Arabia on May 3. This match is part of the Riyadh Season and will happen during the Cinco de Mayo weekend. Alvarez is the undisputed super-middleweight champion, while Scull is the undefeated IBF titleholder. The card features several exciting matchups. One highlight is the rematch between Jaime Munguia and Bruno Surace. In their first fight last December, Surace shocked everyone by stopping Munguia in the sixth round. Munguia had been doing well until a powerful right hook from Surace ended the fight. Another important fight is between Martin Bakole and Efe Ajagba. This bout is an IBF World title eliminator. Bakole, who recently suffered a knockout loss to Joseph Parker, is stepping back into the ring against Ajagba, who is on a five-fight win streak. Badou Jack will defend his WBC World cruiserweight title against Ryan Rozicki. Jack, a three-weight world champion, needs this fight to clarify his position since he was named champion-in-recess. Rozicki is the top contender and a victory here could lead to more opportunities. Other bouts on the card include Mexican debutant Marco Verde taking on Michel Galvan Polina and undefeated Cuban Brayan Leon matching up against Aaron Rocha Guerrero. This event promises to be full of action and excitement for boxing fans.
