  • Another forgettable win for Saul "Canelo" Alvarez over William Scull leaves the sport pining for a new flag-bearer.

In the article from Yahoo Sports, writer William Scull discusses the current state of Canelo Alvarez's career and his standing in the boxing world. Despite Canelo's long reign as a top figure in boxing, Scull argues that the Mexican superstar may no longer be the undisputed "face of boxing." This perspective is based on Canelo's recent performances, including his loss to Dmitry Bivol and a less-than-stellar win against Gennady Golovkin, suggesting that his skills might be declining. Additionally, the emergence of new talents like Gervonta Davis and the continued dominance of fighters like Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. are seen as contributing factors to the shifting dynamics in the sport. Scull concludes that while Canelo remains a significant figure, the crown of being the face of boxing might no longer fit him as comfortably as it once did.
