    Hearn suggested Ryder fight GGG next. That fight probably wont happen, but if it did, who do you think would win? A 41 year old GGG or the rugged southpaw Ryder?
    I think GGG even at 41 takes him out of their in a Murata type of beat down but Maybe sooner. Thoughts.

    Actually that would be a very tough fight for GGG and one that he might lose. He is getting very old and has been declining for a while.

    40 years old GGG won the third fight against Canelo. 41 years old GGG would win against Ryder.
    People are getting carried away because Ryder went the distance against a near retired Canelo - He probably has 1 or 2 big fights left and that's it for him.

    I think Golovkin win's he might even stop Ryder late but it is a tough fight

    Ryder is a tough man but GGG is another level of tough. He stops him in about 10 in a grueller

    And then you wake up.

    I don't think GGG has much fight left in him anymore. He looked like a beaten fighter in September. But if they fought now, GGG's jab would probably win him a decision. I doubt Ryder could hurt GGG because no one ever has, so it probably ends up a UD. Good fight though if it happened.

    Ryder took a pounding against Canelo, and while GGG is way past it Ryder is in constant range for Golovkin's power . I think it's all downhill for Ryder at this point.

    I'd pick GGG still, but like @chacal mentioned, prime GGG would win easily.
