William Scull - English
Legends leave marks, but these records can be taken away by future generations and athletes. This is the case of Canelo Alvarez, although this record is on the line between the sporting and the non-sporting.

Like a sheikh! Canelo welcomed with flowers in Saudi Arabia ahead of his big fight
For starters, Alvarez would have to fight a top-tier opponent, which would attract a huge fan base and, consequently, higher ticket sales. For he would have to surpass the sale of 16,219 tickets that left a total of USD 72,198,500 million.
What other precedents are there?
Below this mark and to everyone’s surprise is Canelo and Mayweather himself when they faced each other on September 14, in 2023. At that time, they sold 16,146 tickets and collected USD 20,003,150 million. And although it seems like a big number, it is far below the one that today occupies the first place.

Could he manage to surpass this mark in his next fight?
Canelo will face William Scull on May 3. However, it is expected that this fight will not surpass this great number. Although nothing assures that Canelo can’t stay with this mark. Who should he fight to achieve it?
