Round-by-Round: Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez vs. William Scull | PPV - May 3, 2025

[TBA]

Don't know if the Saudi's will want Efe back after that showing. The tactics were sound, but for a heavy, style was a stinker.

Get Bakole back and put him in with someone like Zhang on their next big heavies card.

[Perkin Warbeck]

I thought Ajagba boxed very well and deserved to win.

I scored it 98-92 for Ajagba and even if we give every close round to Bakole, it's still 96-94 for Ajagba.

I agree. Ajagba won that fight 98-92 at worst 97-93
Getting fed up with crap scoring

[skanksta]

Yep, he lost points for being boring for sure.

[skanksta]

Munguia is back - exorcised the demons after a shaky start.

117-112 for me.

[skanksta]

Scores please...?

It's very close and tough to score, feel like Mik is younger, busier and edging all the rounds, but he gets stiffed usually and Jack lives in Saudi (i think ? )

[skanksta]

I'm saying 3-2 NM btw.

[Evander]

Sparring session this

[skanksta]

Yep crap cruisers.

It's intriguing at least, 4-4 I think ??

[Evander]

Jack v Mikaelian has been an eye sore so far
No one seems to want it that bad

[Evander]

Jack wins a MD

[skanksta]

More home-cooking

Again, not terrible - but again it didn't have to be.
Mik probs won, but it was close enough and crap enough to give to who you want - they wanted Jack so he gets it.
Mik "only himself to blame"

[Ruthless-RKO]

Is Scull winning?

Canelo sure hates this style

[skanksta]

Is Scull winning?

Canelo sure hates this style

Yeah he's winning every minute - Scull is running

[skanksta]

40-36 Canelo.

Scull is landing the odd shot while running scared. Dull fight.
50-45 not Canelo's fault.

[ScotsCrime]

The commentators have Canelo 5-0 up?!?

He has hardly thrown a punch!

[Evander]

After 6
Canelo winning but he's looking ordinary as the rounds go by

[skanksta]

The commentators have Canelo 5-0 up?!?

He has hardly thrown a punch!

I'm thinking 6-1 Canelo - Scull is running away.

Ffs with these challengers who want to move and fiddle for 12 with no effort to win.

He is sticking and moving and catching him with counter punches!

The stats show he has thrown more and landed more.

[Evander]

No idea what Scull is doing
It's survival and going through the motions

Right...
What's your score ?

6-3 Scull


This commentary is like a football clubs own TV channel.

Canelo TV.

Apparently this is not the sport of hit and not be hit anymore.

[skanksta]

Shades of Hughie, but getting hit by raking body shots - he's not winning.

[skanksta]

118-110 Canelo.

Scull showed great defensive movement and popped Canelo repeatedly, but never really did anything to win enough rounds.

[amwsnw]

Commentary is very average. So bias. I appreciate it’s not exciting boxing it’s two contrasting styles, and one canelo found difficult to handle - although I’m sure he gets the decision. 118-110, 117-111 type svores
