The Big Fight Preview - Saul "Canelo" Alvarez vs John Ryder

Published: May 2, 2023, 2:45 p.m.

It's Cinco de Mayo week in Mexico and that means only one thing...Saul "Canelo" Alvarez is boxing!\nThis time it's against our very own John Ryder 32-5 (18KOs) who has forced his way into this position and has been on a career resurgence having fights with Callum Smith, Danny Jacobs, and Zach Parker in recent years. This is his top-of-the-mountain moment, but can he topple the mighty Mexican who some say is not the same fighter any more despite still being number one in the division?\nWe look ahead to the fight and assess the chances of John Ryder and look at where Canelo is at and whether there could be a shock on the cards!\nAlso on the show we cover the Boxxer promoted card on the same night as Joshua Buatsi faces undefeated Pawel Stepian and we see the first female British title fight as 2020 Olympian Lauren Price takes on Kirstie Bavington.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
