Canelo-Ryder at 168 is a DISGRACE.

[QueensburyRules]

Lets not play silly rankings games. Regardless of his ranking, this is a guy who lost to almost every guy Canelo beat at 168. He is a journeyman and does not deserve an undisputed title shot. Rankings are a factor only to a certain degree.

Reminder that Ryder ducked Morrell like the plague when the WBA ordered Ryder to fight Morrell for the regular belt

Ryder is decent as a comeback...he just beat Parker.

Not really, Parker quit!

Meanwhile, that big titty blond bitch broke her hand to bits and kept on fighting like a real champ!

That’s a highly pretentious list you have there. You’re attempt at being an elitist while ignoring Ryder actually makes you look like the opposite of what you’re trying to look like.

You know, ryder is a top 10 smw, he has paid his dues and is in that position because smart management. He was going to face Morrell Jr, and hearns didn't like it one bit, after witnessing the demolition of caceres. He took him of the board by saying, he was going to face bivol, we knew that wasn't true, but he ain't going to say that he, ryder, got no chance against the Cuban. In most eyes he lost to jacobs, but in most eyes he won against smith. So, I'm fine with him cashing out his lottery ticket, but in no way I agreed that he's the best fight for canelo. We know that's bs.

canelita!

Perfectly legitimate fight.

If the champ is so far ahead that legitimate top 5 contenders ain't considered much of a challenge then it says a deal more about the quality of the Champion that it does about the failings of the challenger.

Ryder is a very solid SMW and deserves his top 5 slot. Canelo is a level above.

Canelo took out a couple of calluses with a girl who works at the beauty parlor on the corner and all of a sudden he got a surgery, LOL.

It’s essentially just Canelo and his team admitting we they want another cherrypick fight after they just cherrypicked a 160lber 40yr old senior citizen. So now they plan to cherrypick Ryder who has no chance of beating 0% so Canelo's going to try and cherrypick him. Ryder has never even fought a real challenge at 168 like Morrell and Benavidez, he even lost to Rocky Fielding a few years ago for phuck sake!

I really hope Ryder tells them if you want to fight the best and prove you are not a cherrypicker then you’ve got to come to 175 and rematch Bivol. Unfortunately though money talks.

Come on, no one has ever heard of a “tune up fight” is this really something new? Hell, Tanks last 10:fights have been tune ups.
Canelo just had surgery, not to mention he’s past his prime and isn’t getting better. I just want him to fight Charla and Benavides so everyone will shut up. Then I want him to retire but he won’t.

- - How Canelo past prime age 32 when he's taken next to zero punishment in his career?

Let the Charlene sistas fight each other and Androgynous. Canelo will get around to Bena and other contenders before retirement, but I wouldn't be surprised if he moved up to 175 again for the right fight. By age 34 he'll have made so much $$$ that he almost has to retire for his family's sake.

Canelo and other great boxers do get old. Peak performance from a humans is 25. Yes, some can improve but it’s not reflexes. IT’s INTELLIGENCE.
Canelo is old and fighting way above his weight class. He’s far too bulky, which tires him out so much more quickly.
