John Ryder after the fight with Saul Alvarez (59-2-2, 39 KOs) said the peak of the Mexicans' career is probably over. In a similar tone, he spoke Oscar De La Hoya, former promoter of Canelo.
Last Saturday, Alvarez confidently defeated Ryder, knocking him down during the fight, but could not finish the opponent ahead of schedule. But not only this made some doubt his greatness. Three fights ago, he received a boxing lesson from Dmitry Bivol.
“I didn't like what I saw. Canelo couldn't shake his opponent. In my opinion, his career is slowly declining and the peak period is over. He doesn't move as fast as he used to, and when he shocked Ryder, he had to go after him, shower him with a flurry of punches and force the referee to stop the fight. He didn't. I also see other small signs that it is getting harder for him from fight to fight. His peak has already passed, ”said the Golden Boy, a former world champion in six weight categories.
