    Canelo vs William Scull is not an "epic joke," it's a decent scrap. What is a "epic joke" is Super Middleweight (168) Canelo vs Super Welterweight (154) Crawford.

      Crawford has only had one fight at 154, and he didn't look great. Personally, I think calling him a super welterweight is generous. Bud is a welterweight. Or if we're dignifying single fights at the weight, then Tank Davis is a super lightweight and Canelo is a light heavyweight.

        Scull has no chance of winning this fight. It's not a decent scrap. Call it what it is: product for Canelo fans.

          It's a joke. Scull has had 1 fight against a legit opponent...and he lost. A lot of fighters get gift decisions but they have resumes to fall back On, Scull has no resume. Also he fought like a coward not engaging, holding constantly and buying time not to get kod. I can't think of a legit reason why it would be decent. He has a belt? Only because canelo dropped it and now when a bum picked it up off the scrap heap canelo wants it back but the coward canelo can't fight benavidez? Don't let the coward canelo off the hook. All these fights deserve criticism

              Canelo is a measly -$3000 against Scull
              Now tell us why that is
              We'll be waiting for your response if …….

                  Canelo/Skull is down to the IBF & there rediculous rating committee, just as we get a unified undisputed champion, their greed kicks in & we're back to square one. Yes Canelo's a cherry picker, but currupt alphabet sanctioning bandits don't help!!...............
