[Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs John Ryder - May 6th in Mexico

[Shamm]

Long story short - this is going to be a useless fight for Canelo, that only his fans would watch. Real boxing fans are not much interested in this fight, as they expect nothing outstanding from it. Expect pressure from Canelo and a TKO in round 4-6. That is it.

I don't think it will be a useless fight, yes it's a cherry-picked fight but the boxing community will still be interested but not to the point, of buying high prices for ringside or PPV, the media will watch and follow the development, and the actual fight if you're an undisputed champion and on a ring magazine people will still be interested to follow your career.
Who knows Ryder can offer something and give Canelo a tough fight, boxing fans want action regardless of who's fighting. and boxing fans will watch boxing as long as it's popular boxers regardless of who they are fighting.

Then I will ask a bit differently, if there will be two huge boxing fights running simultaneously or Canelo vs Ryder fight will be running parallel the sports/team you are fan of, will you rather watch Canelo vs Ryder fight or other sports event? Personally, I would watch something other, and next day morning just google for result.

Or lets discuss what this fight will give Canelo despite even more money? He wont be getting any new belt, he wont advance in the rating, a victory over Ryder wont open a gate for a new opponent. Imho this fight is only needed for him to perform in Mexico and be 1000% sure to win. That is it. Easy and useless fight.

I'm both a Canerlo and a boxing fan I want to see good boxing, remember the Ruiz - Joshua fight, it looks like a cherry-picked fight but it turn out not to be and turn out to be a great boxing match if boxing fans just shrug off this fight and call it another guaranteed win for Joshua then they've just missed a very good fight, how about the Tyson - Douglas fight it looks like a walk in a park but boxing fans still watch it so they are treated for the biggest upset, we boxing fans loves good boxing so boxing fans will watch it because they love good and high-level
boxing, this could be a walk in the park for Canelo but we will still see good boxing and that's a good reason to watch it.

I think it will be a good fight as we all know that both higher are good in terms of fighting as we saw their previous fights it's look like we can see a very close fight and even though some user are favored Canelo alvarez cause without a doubt canelo is a strong fighter and have a very good fighting skills that he can adjust his techniques in order to win the fight. But for sure John ryder will be fight and prove to us that he can beat canelo.

Users as well as bettors are favoring Canelo because based on speculations, Canelo got more facts and already proved what he can do inside the ring while for John Ryder, he is still on the process of making his own name and carved it in the industry. This will be his biggest opportunity because he is fighting to be a champion and will acquire all four belts of Canelo, but before that, he should prove himself that he's worthy. People would want to see this Ryder perform and that includes me, he's an interim champion, so I expect a good fight from him.

Yes and that is already expected especially on the side of gambling, bettors will always tend to side with the boxer who got more chances to win a fight despite its low odds than to risk their funds to bet on a risky bet with low chances just because they are after of the high paying money line. But, there are some instances that the underdog is worth betting for but I think this is not that instance, although an upset might happen but talking about that chances, it's just less than slim.

He better prepares himself as he has  never done during his life as he is going to have everything against him during his fight against Canelo, and if he wants to get the win he will need to KO Canelo, but this is going to be extremely difficult and even if Canelo is coming off an injury I still think he has what it is necessary to get the win against Ryder without too much of a problem and then set a rematch against Bivol.

Doesn't need to be a KO, what John Ryder needs is to have most scores in his favor in almost every round where the judges might want to help Canelo but their hands are tied because people knows who's the winner, just like what Bivol did to Canelo as he didn't KOd Canelo but he proved that won most of those rounds. I think there's a chance, although, that's very likely because of the fact that this is just a tune-up fight.

I agree, Ryder doesn't need to knockout Canelo in-order to make a statement, in plain point, he just have to defeat the undisputed champion regardless of what way it would be. But the thing is, I don't think Canelo will just agree with that one because he is also looking to fight the guy who gave him a second defeat in his career and then there's another opponent that he needs to fight (the winner of Plant-Benavidez fight), that means that Canelo will have to step on John Ryder.

I agree, defeating Alvarez will be a huge accomplishment for Ryder.  He doesn't need to win via KO just a plain winning, may it be a split decision or majority decision is enough to boost the career of Ryder.  But of course, if Ryder won via KO that will not only make a statement but an exclamation and make a huge uproar of his career.

Obviously Canelo will not just let that thing to happen.  He has a career to protect and a title to defend.  Canelo will also do his best to beat his opponent so I think this fight will be more interesting though I guess it will be more on lopsided having Canelo the advantage.

Take note mate, when fighting Canelo Alvarez, don't expect that scorecard will be favored his opponent unless a clear win per round is really shown like what happened when Canelo fights Dmitry Bivol where the latter clearly won most rounds as judges won't be able to even attempt to make some cheating where Bivol is really the clear winner on those rounds.

A split decision in favor of Ryder is absolutely impossible to happen, believed me. The only sequence that will make Ryder a winner is, if he will have the same performance as Bivol did against Canelo, or if Ryder will find a way to Knock Out Canelo. No other way.

And that's where corruption or least biased judging from the judges comes in. Canelo is the cash cow of boxing so they don't want him to lose, simply as that. Even in the GGG fight, in the first fight, clearly it was GGG that should have won that, but there was one judges who score it 118-110? what the hell is that scoring if not maybe the judges is in the payroll?

Anyhow, we know that Ryder chances are very slim, unless he really won via KO which is impossible to happen as Canelo also had a granite chin.

I also think this way, I know that technically Ryder could try to win and defeat Canelo just as Bivol did, however the difference is that this fight is going to happen at Mexico and we know that in the past judges have helped Canelo, and the example you bring forward is very clear about this, so I think this is going to be even worse as he is fighting at his country and I really think the only way for Ryder to win is by delivering a KO to Canelo.

[Westinhome]

The Mexico match was the long waited match for the Canelo fans,they had some good Spirit for the Canelo as compared to the Ryder.But as we know Ryder is experienced player with huge number of matches in the past history.Bivol already beat the Canelo in the league,So Canelo try to discontinue his fight against Ryder.But as we know Ryder was experienced player compared to the Canelo,the game will be favourable to Ryder in the Mexico.

[kenshi222]

Ryder game was unique one compared to Bivol an Canelo.Ryder has huge support among the betting gambling player as compared to Bivol and Canelo.But with the Fortunes to Bivol against Canelo and Canelo had huge responsibility towards the game to prove his strength to his supporters.Canelo is not the potential less player,may be as compared to Ryder his strength will be low.Because Ryder experience dominates the rest of the two players in the list.

Ryder was expected player to get the best results of this three list.Ryder had a chance to win the matches by declaring Knockout against the Canelo in the upcoming match.Some people still supporting the Canelo on the upcoming Mexico match which going to occur in May month of this year.Ryder also waiting to prove his game against the Canelo and Bivol for current situation.

What do you mean that he had a huge support from the betting public? Smart money will not go to John Ryder, he is not known to casual fans and to US betting public which I think the biggest supporter of Canelo. Yeah, maybe in UK he will have some support from bettors, but it will not be enough to offset to make the odds even close.

Ryder doesn't have the experience either, and some of the best fighters in his resume, Canelo already beat them.

Yes, Ryder has a chance to win, everybody does against Canelo, but I think it will be slim as he doesn't have the tools like Bivol has.

I also think that majority of bettor will choose Canelo, I also don't think that many known Ryder besides looking at Ryder's record, I do not feel comfortable betting on him.  I also think that he does not have the materials needed to beat Alvarez. 

Ryder doesn't have the experience either, and some of the best fighters in his resume, Canelo already beat them.

I think Ryder does have the experience but those experience are not enough to cover the lack of ability in beating Alvarez.  So I think this fight will be an easy fight for Alvarez because he has fought many boxers that is better than Ryder and beat them all.

Perhaps he will bet on Ryder, we don't know. But for those who have been following Canelo's career, obviously he will be the smart bet here, but not ML. We should look for value for our money in this fight.  We can't count Ryder out, he has a chance, but it's very small. So if we know that his chances are not so good, then it will be just a waste of money to bet on him. And if we talk about Ryder experience, let's look at his resume, he lost to Callum Smith, which Canelo  beat and took Smith WBA and WBC super middleweight belt. Ryder also lost to Rocky Fielding, which Canelo destroyed in Fielding in 3 rounds with four knockdown/knockout. And so we can say that they are not on the same level as far as skills and even in experience.

[Jawhead999]

Yeah, I think the chance for Canelo to win via decision is higher than Canelo to win via knockout since Ryder get knocked out was on 2015, it's already 2023 so he must be have train his body. When Canelo fight with a quite good boxers, he can via KO at late round e.g. 11th round, so it just depends on which odds is higher, either Canelo win via decision or Canelo to win at 10-12 round.

I agree, there's a good chance that this fight will end by a way of decision in-favor of Canelo Alvarez considering that Canelo is still observing his wrist after it got repaired. We can say that it's not yet at its full power as his camp are still observing what would happen and its effect into Canelo, so yes, they won't be chasing for KO this time but if there's a chance, why not as that will end the fight much earlier and would favor them much.

Just too unfortunate for John Ryder, not underestimating but he's just there to be Canelo's testing ground. No offense to his fans, just a pure thought though.

[freedomgo]

Few more weeks to go and we will see Canelo Alvarez again fighting and defending his throne in the ring after the surgery which made him rest for a few couple of months.

Despite the fact that many people believed that John Ryder isn't as good as Canelo's recent opponents, I do think that he will be a good test for Canelo's wrist if it's indeed working perfectly fine after he got it fixed.

And regarding John Ryder, he said that this might be his last fight.

Ryder will be turning 35 years old in July, and he’s not a spring chicken any longer. If he loses to Canelo, this is probably the last chance he’ll get to fight for another world title before he ages out and is too old to work his way back into another mandatory spot.

He knows it, this will be his last ticket and probably his biggest payday before he retires. So we can say that he is very lucky to be given this chance by Eddie Hearns before he exit.

Any boxer though will be real test for Canelo's wrist, even if sparring or in the body bag, he will have the feel whether it is 100% pain free now or not. But most likely it has healed already and Canelo ready to give his fans in Mexico a good fight against Ryder. Hopefully Ryder too will give his best and not just take a dive in this fight.

Nah mate, sparring or punching a body bag isn't the same as having a proper official fight. We won't be calling it as a sparring fight if that is the same as a real fight where you're records are at stake and where you have a legit opponent because in sparring, everything has a limit and it's up to the coach if he will call it a day or not. But in the fight, there's no such thing as that because the boxer will be fighting until he win or gets defeated.

About John Ryder, perhaps this is indeed his last fight before he hangs his gloves and I agree that this fight is a good exit for him as aside from the honor of fighting the likes of Canelo, he will also have a good payday because it will be a sold out fight for sure especially because this fight will happen in Mexico.
