The fact that Canelos respect for the people he faces is ideal, I know a lot of fighters go into the fights talking and selling the fights but he don’t have to do all that. Great sportsmanship

[israelcampos]

Ryder went to my country Mexico and got our respect, he's a true warrior canelo was throwing bombs 💣💣

[g-man]

Good stuff, sportsmanship and respect from 2 warriors, how it's meant to be.

I cannot believe people say Rider is a "Cherry pick" he did Beat Daniel Jacobs, and was robbed the decision vs Callum smith. He might not be the best, but he is one of the top fighters in that division. That is why he was a number #1 Contender. At least in the UFC that means something.

Canelo is a class act, totally respectful

[letitiamcculley]

Look at all the bruises up and down his arms also. Oh my

[paulbowman]

Total proffessional Canelo..respect for every fighter..

[bengolfs]

John left a sizable amount of blood in the ring that night. Glad he made it back home.

[davidoburrito]

He’s a true champion and a humble leader. Love the respect. Ryder is a tough dude and caught Canelo with some clean counters but nevertheless it was a fun fight to watch.

[hoosiernative]

You could tell his body was hurting and aching by the way he kept trying to take his shorts off

[efrainamezcua]

Ryder looks like he survived a bear attack. 😮

[edboy]

I say it once again, respect to the Gorilla Ryder 🦍🥊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿! He might have not gotten the victory but clearly won the hearts from the Mexican community and tue whole world. Ryder showed he still belongs in the division. Could’ve had quit on the stool and stayed down but chose to get back up and fight back against the Pound for Pound 👑🥊

[luisalbertocarrillobacab]

Ryder is a true warrior he got lots of new fans for sure

[theguvnor]

Wow, that bruising on his arms is frightening. Canelo did something similar to Smith too.

Canelo represents himself well man. To think when he was young he had a translator everywhere he went. Now he has improved his English, and thinks before he speaks, it’s like we literally watched him grow up.

Whoever takes over as the the “popular” fighter when Canelo retires, I hope learns from this and builds on it.

The next guy needs to have balance between carrying himself this way and giving us the fights we want. And I know that’s tough because it’s risk involved with giving fan pleasing fights.

[CarlosDiaz-xmmf]

I'm a Canelo fan but Ryder stood his ground, I got to give him that

[JamJam]

Johns a warrior

Been following him since the smith fight & got the pleasure of seeing him against Parker.

Hope he doesn't call it a day given the payday (not that anyone would blame him) as it would be great to see him back in the UK

[danksreal]

Ryders style was unique, was something different I think so and strong 💪🏽

[oscarguevara]

Two warriors that went in and did damage to each other Ryder took much more of that damage but damn he’s as tough as they come his damn knuckles are bleeding through the wraps,
