How to watch Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez vs William Scull live: streaming options, start time and full fight card

William Scull enters the ring during the media workout ahead of his IBF, WBC and WBO World Super Middleweight titles fight against Canelo Alvarez.

How to watch Canelo Alvarez vs William Scull live streams online from anywhere

Today's Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez vs William Scull live stream sees all four super-middleweight titles on the line in what should be a thrilling bout in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Canelo holds the WBC, WBO, and WBA belts at 168lbs but was stripped of the IBF title after choosing to fight Edgar Berlanga instead of mandatory challenger Scull.

Scull stepped in, beat Vladimir Shishkin to claim the vacant IBF belt, and now has the chance to become undisputed champion. To do that, he must upset one of the all-time great pound-for-pound fighters.

The undefeated Cuban has just nine stoppages and has never faced anyone near Canelo’s level. While the Mexican star has had a long career, he's still the man to beat at super-middleweight, with recent wins over Berlanga, Jaime Munguia, and Jermell Charlo.

Can I watch a Canelo vs Scull live stream for free?

Away from Mexico when the fight takes place? Remember to fire up a VPN to be able to watch the pre-record Canelo vs Scull fight as if you were back home. We recommend NordVPN, scroll down for more information.
