While Alvarez looked rather relaxed and calm during the face-off, on the other hand, Ryder, made it clear that he was not fooling around for this fight. And he means business. The 34-year-old gave a death stare to the Mexican, and the emotions heading into this fight were clearly visible on his face.

Notably, Ryder did not let go of his stare throughout the face-off. And his stare can be considered a direct message for the reigning undisputed champion and could be a threat to his titles as much as Alvarez would like to retain his titles on the night of May 6. ‘The Gorilla’ will step into the ring with the same passion but to strip the 32-year-old of his prestigious titles. Whatever the result of the fight, maybe. This fight is important for the ‘Cinnamon.’
