His conference was livelier than that of Ryan, Devin and Teo's which was at the same spot just a few days back. Listen to the roar of the folks at Ginger's conference in comparison to the 3 Americans that are fighting on the same card. Shoot, Teo's from New York and that didn't help generate the buzz that Ginger generates, and Ginger's not even from The States...

His win vs Canelo was on points and no harm done to Canelo, heīs still the face of boxing, not Bivol and has the best record today, not Usyk, not Crawford, nor Benavidez.
Canelo's consistent weight for years prior to the Bivol fight was 168, with previous forays at 175 (Kovalev). He moved up 7 pounds, a 4% increase in weight to take on Bivol. Usyk weighed 226 for his last fight at heavyweight, that is over 50 pounds more than Bivol or a 29 percent increase. Not even close to the same.

Canelo is the face of boxing, he filled up that arena yesterday in New York of all places, just for a press conference. More people were there than the 50 people that went to see the Bivol/Beterbiev fight, more people went to see Canelo talk than a championship fight, LOL.Verus likes this.

Don't know much about Scull aside from the little bit seen in his title win, but I wouldn't count out anybody that comes from the Cuban school of boxing. Dude has skills and is undefeated, but unknown and untested. If he can rise to the level and show the type of skill that some of his Cuban compatriots of recent times have had, it might be a more difficult fight than folks might think for Canelo.
