The scorecards of Canelo Alvarez vs. John Ryder are now public. On the 6th of May, in his hometown, Canelo Alvarez defended his undisputed status against John Ryder inside the ring. Although Alvarez won, Ryder displayed heart and fought till the final bell. Following the end of the fight, Ryder even declared that Alvarez was past his best and on the decline. While Alvarez busted Ryder’s nose, there were moments when Ryder was able to land some of his shots at Alvarez.

Following Alavrez’s latest performance, a number of fans doubted Alvarez being able to avenge his loss against Bivol in their potential rematch.
