This match marks a first for Canelo. He'll fight for a world championship outside of Mexico or the USA for the first time in his career. The bout will take place at 06:00 local time, an unusual schedule for the boxers.
Canelo arrived in Saudi Arabia three weeks early. He wanted to finish his preparation, get used to the climate, and adjust to the strange fight time. The Mexican star will earn a guaranteed $80 million for this unification clash.
While getting ready for the big night, Canelo's been busy. He's been training hard, checking out Saudi Arabia's sights, and even trying some fancy beauty treatments. One of these treatments caught everyone's eye - a 24-karat gold face mask.
This luxurious mask, costing around $500, promises to make skin glow, look firmer, and have fewer wrinkles. It's especially good for someone like Canelo, whose skin can easily get damaged by the sun.
"The gold mask helps restore radiance, tone the skin, give greater firmness, and reduce wrinkles and expression lines," said a source close to Canelo's team.
Canelo's choice to get this treatment shows he's feeling pretty good about the fight. It looks like he doesn't expect to get hit in the face too much.
The odds makers agree with Canelo's confidence. They've made him the clear favorite to win against Scull.
This fight is a big deal for both boxers. Canelo wants to get back the IBF belt he lost when he refused to fight Scull earlier. Now, he's taking on the challenge in a place he's never fought before, aiming to prove he's still the top dog in the division.
