'CANELO TOO SMART FOR MUNGUIA! Crawford makes no sense' - JOHN RYDER expert view

Recently retired John Ryder talks about life after hanging up the gloves, his experiences fighting both Canelo and Jaime Munguia, the likely May showdown between the Mexican pair and where Terence Crawford fits into the equation.

SecondsOut is a world leader in boxing entertainment since 1999.

Canelo pretty much ended this Gladiator's career Much respect to him but he took a beating in that fight

[andrewblaclwater]

If Crawford had a chance then he would’ve moved up on classes. Stop it guys please. 😂

[bengolfs]

There have been MUCH worse fighters who somehow managed to win world titles. I can think of several. John Ryder was unfortunate enough to face an all-time great in Canelo; and a budding superstar in Jaime Munguia. Nothing to be ashamed of. He's gettig out at the right time. No need for him to be a stepping stone.

[Boylo]

There are a lot of people who believe Crawford can best Canelo. Mainly deluded yanks might I add. At 160 he has a slim chance, at 168 he has virtually no chance against Canelo.

[hectormorales]

Ya gotta understand that Canelo is fighting big ol’ animals bruh… Canelo small for 168 AND fought at 175

Crawford “might” have better skills but he’s gonna get touched. And he gone feel that.

Canelo fights with feints which is hard to decipher 100% of the time.

Crawford going to sleep like Khan lol

[trevorbantleman]

I brave fighter thank you for giving us great fights, enjoy your retirement and enjoy your hard earned money . God Bless you .

[leosalasify]

Credit to Eddie, spending so much time with a guy who's done with career and has nothing to gain. Don't see any other peomoter doing that. If I was a fighter he would be my promoter my whole career. He is the best...

[Soave]

at the moment nobody can beat Canelo, , , , he is too good and smart

[Jaime]

From Austin Trout to John Ryder Canelo has retired many contending boxers.

[fermingarrick]

He's made millions..invested a now enjoying Life.

[signkutter]

Crawford is a dominant fighter at 147...but anybody who thinks Alvarez has faded so much that cant land consistently on Crawford...is biased beyond reality. Crawford is a dawg..he lives in the pocket...he gets hit and hurt..but his skill and firepower get him out of losing fights as often as not. Against Alvarez Crawfords power advantage is gone ..in no small part due to Alvrez's chin and defensive skills

[blitzbane]

Look... Ryder at least got the big fights and made money in the process, I think that is a great thing and now he can be a comentator and make additional money in boxing - What is more inportant in life?

[bengolfs]

I would install Canelo as a 2-or-3 to 1 favorite over Jaime Munguia if they signed for the fight...but no more than that. Munguia has a great chin, A/A- power, and is six years younger than Canelo. A Munguia win would not surprise me.

[d.b.cooper]

Crawford does make no sense but this is how far Canelo has fallen by reducing the people he can have big fights with by avoiding certain people. Either way, Canelo v Crawford is a mega fight PPV & hype wise.

[kikiboxinglife]

This tells you that Ryder got paid to take knee 😂😂canelo f him up worst and his team never threw in the towel 😂😂😂payday payday for his retirement 😂

[lobsterblacc]

Crawford would beat YOU Ryder so YOU made no sense for both fighters facing each other in May

[christian]

lol, Crawford got hurt and knocked down by a mean machine at 147!!!! you want him to go up 3 to 4 for weight classes to run away and survive. weight classes exist for a reason please Canelo would put Old Man Crawford on life support.

[Jaime]

Damn he got fucked for 2 consecitive fights damn. Canelo definitely destroyed his career Munguia took the credit but still a beating he took.

[svgsr]

“Doesn’t make sense?”
Let’s review… they’re about the same
height, Crawford has a longer reach, I seriously doubt Alvarez is stronger than Crawford, Crawford is faster, both hands and feet, nobody’s “ring generalship” is superior to Crawford’s, they both have power.
It’d be a great fight, if Alvarez were to win he’d have beaten the best “Boxer” on the planet, if Crawford were to win he’d be a three division undisputed champ, both scenarios would be great for Boxing!

[gastelum]

I agree canelo is levels above Munguia. But Canelo doesn’t have Munguias gas tank. Also Canelo might overlook him. I think Munguia shocks the world. KO!!
