Saul Alvarez for The Ring
That was the idea. To become two-time undisputed.
Alvarez last fought in September 2024, winning by unanimous decision against Edgar Berlanga. His professional record stands at 62 wins (39 by knockout), two losses, and two draws.
Scull last stepped into the ring in October 2024, winning by unanimous decision against Vladimir Shishkin. He holds a record of 23 wins (nine by knockout) with no losses.
