Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez has been ordered to face an unbeaten mandatory challenger.
No, not that one.
The clock for Guadalajara’s Alvarez to next face William Scull, a Germany-based Cuban and IBF mandatory challenger for nearly two years. A negotiation period has been assigned for the two sides to reach an agreement and avoid a purse bid hearing.
AGON Sports & Events, Scull’s Germany-based promoter, confirmed the development early Tuesday morning.
The IBF has ordered the fight between Canelo and William Scull.
