The undercard has been finalized for the undisputed super middleweight clash between Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and William Scull.
In the main event of the Riyadh Season card, Canelo will stake his Ring, WBA, WBC, WBO, world titles when he faces undefeated IBF champion Scull on May 3rd in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
As previously reported by The Ring, former world champion Jaime Munguia (44-2, 35 KOs) will attempt to get revenge when faces Bruno Surace (26-0-2, 5 KOs) in a co-featured rematch.
Back in December, Surace was a massive underdog when he scored a shocking one-punch knockout of Munguia in Mexico. The outcome would ultimately become Ring's Upset of The Year.
Heavyweight punchers Martin Bakole (21-2, 16 KOs) and Efe Ajagba (20-1, 14 KOs) will collide in what many expect to be a shootout.
Bakole will look to bounce back after suffering a two-round knockout loss to former world champion Joseph Parker last month. Bakole took that fight on two day's notice after Daniel Dubois withdrew with an illness. Ajagba saw action back in April of last year, when he picked up a tough split decision win over Guido Vianello.
WBC cruiserweight champion Badou Jack (28-3-3, 17 KOs) will make a mandatory defense of his world title against dangerous puncher Ryan Rozicki (20-1-1, 19 KOs).
Jack will be fighting for the first time since knocking out Junior Makabu for the title in February of 2023. Rozicki will be coming back from a December draw with Yamil Alberto Peralta.
Also on the card, highly touted Olympian Marco Verde will make his pro debut against Michel Polina.
Verde won the gold medal in the 2023 Pan American Games at welterweight. He also won the welterweight silver medal at the 2024 Summer Olympics after losing the final bout against Uzbek Asadkhuja Muydinkhujaev.
Cuban light heavyweight prospect Brayan Leon (6-0, 6 KOs), who is trained by Eddy Reynoso, will face Aaron Guerrero (11-3-1, 7 KOs). The more experienced Guerrero has never lost by knockout.
