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]
