The IBF has ordered an instantaneous rematch between tremendous middleweight champion William Scull (23-0, 9 KOs) and Vladimir Shishkin (16-1, 10 KOs) to clear up the questionable outcomes of their earlier combat on October nineteenth, in Stadthalle, Falkensee, Germany.

Scull, 32, was outworked and out-punched by Shishkin for 12 rounds, however the judges surprisingly gave the victory to the unbeaten Cuban. It appeared like Shishkin’s victory, however the judges noticed Scull because the winner. Shishkin’s administration pushed for a rematch with the IBF and bought their want.

There’s not a whole lot of curiosity from followers in seeing Scull combat Canelo Alvarez or any of the opposite notable fighters within the 168-lb division. Hopefully, there’s no controversy within the second combat between Scull and Shishkin/

The IBF has ordered William Scull and Vladimir Shishkin to satisfy in an instantaneous rematch. Scull defeated Shishkin, considerably controversially, final month to win a 168-pound title. Shishkin’s staff has lobbied for a rematch. The IBF has granted it.
