I have a feeling this fight will resemble Tyson vs Holyfield, with Scull being Holyfield. In other words, Scull will be surprisingly tough and able to stand his ground with the bull and fight him on even terms, and actually bully the bully sometimes and outbox him when he wants to as well

“The motivation is to see new countries, to fight in new countries, and at this stage of my career I need that motivation.”

Really?? That's a new one...
Canelo last year "“I don’t like to travel. My wife makes me travel and take pictures everywhere. I like staying at home”.

Many folks don't particularly like to travel, but sometimes, it comes with the job. I did it for over 30 years. I enjoyed the places I visited, but not so much the travel itself!

William Scull is the real deal. It’s no wonder he’s undefeated and was top Cuban fighter according to most. Props to Canelo for taking this fight and testing himself to unify the entire division. That my friends is why Canelo is loved worldwide and one of the select all time greats of boxing. Can’t wait for this fight.

The road to greatness!
