[Ruthless-RKO]

Anyone watching this?

There’s an RBR in the British section.

[amwsnw]

Ryder needs to put canelo to sleep after that score. Bloody disgraceful. Even the crown boo it. Why Stevie’s management would send him there is a joke. Robbery!!

[margaret thatcher]

very competitive fight and not the worst decision, but defo a generous one to gollaz there. outside a few rounds and obviously the kd round, spark was giving him 2 for every 1 and having more of an impact

96-93 spark for me

[amwsnw]

Had it 8 rounds to two plus the knock down. Competitive rounds but one sided fight. Poor judging.

[lazboy]

Main next?

[margaret thatcher]

holy bat sheeyat jcm has regressed

[lazboy]

Ryder in the ring, Canelo walking in. Let’s hope for an action fight!

[lazboy]

Really sick of seeing the Khan ko replay.

[lazboy]

Surely this won’t go the distance, Canelo landing some very clean left hooks to the body and some rights to the head.

[lazboy]

What a brutal fight.

[victor-romeo]

Was debating wether to watch thought it free as I have dazn account and they want a bunch money no way..

Huge respect to Ryder, he’s fighting back while taking a beating. Rd 6 was his best rd.

[lazboy]

Canelo taking more than he needs to hunting for that KO.

[lazboy]

Surely Canelo can finish it this rd (rd 9).

[lazboy]

Ryder is as tough as they come.

[margaret thatcher]

ryder has rebounded well from the kd, for the last several rounds he's been hanging with canelo and being a nuisance

12th coming up

Nuisance is the perfect word.

[Mexi-Box]

Terrible fight. Ryder has a chin bit that's all. Canelo needs to fight Benavidez next.

[JxhDel.]

118 - 108 Canelo. I thought Ryder was done after the first KD, but he came back with heart and showed something other than being hard. Masterful performance by Alvarez, but he seemed more cautios and static than before (could it be due to the unfavourable weight jumps).

Hope he faces ASAP either Benavidez or Morrell, he has no business into challenging again Bivol.

[Mexi-Box]

Yup Benavidez or bust, but if he does want to fight Bivol, it's now or never too. He's regressing now. The fact that a dud like Ryder hung in there that long wasn't a good sign. Ryder had sneaky punches, but the dude had no power and couldn't get Canlo's respect outside of being a freaking cement punching bag. Dude took some hellacious temple shots.

[Thomastearns]

Something clearly isnt the same with Canelo. He was never the greatest mover in the ring but he's now decidedly becoming more static.

Could it be that at only 32 he's already no longer the fighter of 3/4 years ago?

If so, then it's worth remembering that GGG was 35 when they first met.

At this rate of decline both Benavidez and Bivol are now getting beyond Canelo's reach.

The Benavidez fight indeed could be a disaster.

There's not a lot of options left for Canelo now but I don't think we'll be seeing him fighting at 35.
