Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo Really Wants To Fight In Mexico On May 6th; I Think It'll Be John Ryder

[_Rexy_]

Ryder is the mando. It doesn’t matter who he fought.

Man, the energy around here is constantly changing when it comes to mandatory challengers...

Not with me. If a guy is a mando then you have to fight him at some point and he has usually done something to earn his spot. Unless he’s an IBF mando.

You're only as good as your last fight and Ryder hasn't looked great in his last 2, so he's not really as deserving as he once was, especially after what many believed should have been a loss against Jacobs.

The best thing that could happen to boxing is for Bivol to fight Canelo at 168 pounds in September,
comprehensively whup him - again - and leave Canelo with no belts and no leverage to keep making a fool out of DAZN by getting excessive purses to fight cherry-picked opponents. It’s time for Canelo to go play golf full time and stop blocking boxing from moving ahead because of his diva “I won’t fight other Mexicans/Andrade/etc.” diva BS.

Well, you may just get your wish except we will need to see the outcome. I HIGHLY doubt Bivol will do anything at all vs a motivated 68 canelo… that’s the undisputed 68 lbr ATG first ballot HOF you talking about brotha!!! It’s not that easy to just bounce around from weight to weight specifically to go down as Bivol would have to do so in your dream scenario.. but, I’d be all in to watch for sure and may the best man win!!!
