Famous American coach Jeff Mayweather said that he was not impressed by the victory of the absolute world champion in the second middleweight Saul Alvarez above John Ryder.

“Canelo did not use what he had become exciting. And in the fight with Ryder, he needed it, because this guy is tough and strong. After Canelo lost to Floyd... I'm not saying he took anything from him because Canelo is a great fighter, but his defense is much better. I'm sure he worked on it.

It seems that in this fight not to miss was not the main goal of Alvarez. I don't know if it was bravado because he performed at home, but overall, I don't think he looked very good. It was a dominant performance, but against a guy who defeated Daniel Jacobs by split decision. I don't even know his other rivals. So I don't know how good he is. But I watched him and said that this guy would be a difficult opponent, because I knew that he was tough and strong. It seems like Canelo just interrupted him. He redesigned it, and that was enough for him, ”Mayweather said in an interview with the FightHype YouTube channel.

On May 6, Canelo defeated John Ryder via unanimous decision.
