William Scull - English
While Saul “Canelo” Alvarez is putting the finishing touches to his fight in Saudi Arabia against the undefeated William Scull, his trainer Eddy Reynoso is already planning the next steps of a career that could be entering its final stages. Beyond the immediate duel, the strategist’s gaze is set on international scenarios that will allow the Mexican boxer to leave an even deeper mark on boxing history.
In an interview with ESPN KnockOut, Reynoso revealed that his desire is to take the Guadalajara champion to fight in iconic places such as Japan or England.
Canelo reveals his top 5 P4P fighters
He assures that taking that step would not only involve a sporting challenge, but also an act of national representation: “I would really like to go to Japan or England in this last stage of Saul’s career… I think it would be important, for his legacy, to offer his boxing there and put the name of Mexico high,” he said.
Chris Eubank Jr., the name that is gaining momentum
Within that international plan, the name of Chris Eubank Jr. has begun to gain momentum as a potential next opponent. The 35-year-old Briton is coming off a resounding victory over Conor Benn, and his style fits the type of challenge Reynoso envisions for Canelo, especially if the fight takes place in the light heavyweight category (175 pounds).
“Now that Chris Eubank Jr. had a great fight, we would like him very much, he seems to us a good opponent,” said Reynoso. Although the fight still depends on multiple factors, the ‘Canelo Team’ considers Eubank Jr. as an attractive option for a fight on British soil. The choice of opponent would coincide with the intention to explore new high-impact international venues before the Mexican champion’s retirement.
The rematch with Bivol is still on the table
Besides Eubank Jr, another name that remains on Alvarez’s radar is Dmitry Bivol. The Russian defeated Canelo in 2022 and has since been constantly mentioned as a possible rematch. Reynoso does not rule out that this fight could materialize, especially if the titles at stake in both the 168 and 175 pounds can be aligned
“The team goes fight by fight,” Reynoso stressed, but hinted that these strategic clashes are already part of medium-term plans. In both cases, the objective does not change: to consolidate a legacy that combines titles, level of competition and a global dimension unprecedented for a Mexican boxer.
With 66 fights in almost 20 years of career, Canelo Alvarez does not have much to prove, but still has much to leave as a mark. The international approach proposed by his trainer opens the door to a final stage full of history, national identity and new challenges.

Who is Will Howard? Get to know the Steelers’ newest QB who could potentially compete for the starting job
Getty Images While it took a little longer than he wanted, Will Howard's prayers were eventually answered on Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Considered by some to be a Day 2 draft pick, Howard was one of several notable quarterbacks still available when the fourth round began Saturday afternoon. Howard continued to wait until the Pittsburgh Steelers selected him in the sixth round with the 185th overall pick. Howard openly prayed for the Steelers to take him, and his prayers were answered. The 23-year-old Howard will now begin his pro career in Pittsburgh, who have turned over their quarterback room for a second straight year. Howard will get a chance to work alongside veteran Mason Rudolph, who was re-signed by the Steelers after spending the 2024 season with the Titans. Howard may also get an opportunity to work with Aaron […]
