William Scull Yero (born 6 June 1992) is a Cuban-German professional boxer. He held the International Boxing Federation (IBF) super-middleweight title from 2024 to 2025.
Professional career
Scull turned pro in 2016 and won the first 22 fights of his career. By 2024, he was listed as the mandatory challenger for Canelo Alvarez's IBF's super middleweight belt.[1] However, Alvarez decided not to fight Scull and to relinquish the IBF belt instead. Scull was ordered to fight the #2 ranked contender Vladimir Shishkin for the IBF super-middleweight title.[2] The pair met at Stadthalle in Falkensee, Germany, on 19 October 2024 with Scull winning by unanimous decision.[3][4]
