Alvarez may be undisputed at super middleweight again, but the performance against William Scull was less than inspiring

Blow-by-blow men Bernardo Osuna and Joe Tessitore and analyst Tim Bradley pointed out the statistical flops from New York and Riyadh at every opportunity and their card's top end delivered, with a fun featherweight scrap between Rafael Espinoza and Edward Vazquez followed by Naoya Inoue's surprisingly tough defense of his 122-pound supremacy.

In beating former IBF super middleweight beltholder William Scull via unanimous decision (115-113, 116-112, 119-109), the Mexican star has now gone seven fights, 84 rounds, 252 minutes and three and a half years without a signature stoppage victory, which he became renowned for in the years when he was crowned the face of boxing.
