    No way is this lad a future WC, simply doesn't punch hard enough.
    He got beat by BJS and hasn't improved one bit since that fight

    Phew! thats a relief....I thought I was the only one who failed to see how "brilliant" Ryder is!
    He is good alright but I think some fans are always on the lookout for a new-kid-on-the-block to latch onto and they lose any sense of perspective.

    I couldnt see him being better than BJS or Nick Blackwell for starters.
    Cant comment on Eubank, so I wont.

    Ryder is a good fighter, but he wouldn't beat Chris Eubank Jr.
