    Canelo has slowed down so much. Beterbiev, Benavidez stop him. Bivol beats him again in a beautiful display of boxing.

    Ryder takes the mouse 12 rounds.

    Seriously if the fight would have been extended to 15 rounds I think Ryder had a chance of going for the KO.

    I was genuinely impressed with Ryder. Its not often you see someone in todays day with Holyfield/Frazier type willpower to continue fighting after taking a beatdown.

    Ryder simply didn't do enough to win. Both were the same size, there was even some degree of similarity. Add the fact the ring was visibly small to serve the no-cardio Canelo and the fact he did what Ryder was supposed to do as a southpaw, it wasn't that hard for the ginger to win. He simply was not impressive. Maybe the nose injury of Ryder played its role, but in any way, the guy can't win the way he fought.

    To me, the fight became boring around the 7th round and was not very exciting up until.

    I knew it would be boring before they even fought knowing both of their styles,

    And speaking the truth about Canelo is not encouraged around here didn't you know?

    Just stick to nick names & other insults that usually does it.
