    Exactly this, it wasn't an exciting fight but Ryder was pretty comfortable in there against a decent opponent. Not saying Ryder is a world beater but a lot of the criticism last night, especially from Sky seemed quite harsh.

    Ok he didn't look sensational, but he did win every round, and finished with a one-punch ko!
    All the other domestic middles have had their share of off nights. Far far worse ones than that. So let's leave Ryder alone.

    I am not singling Murray out.
    If youre going to quote me (and given my brilliant posts its understandable that you do :smoke) at least be kind enough to include the entire quote!

    Ryder is still developing,won easily the commentary was certainly unfair.

    I guess if it had been one of the SKY fighters that regularly help out with punditry the commentary would of been different.

    With any change of opponent of a decent level at short notice performances often suffer.Still a good finish by Ryder.
