Canelo Dominates Alvarez vs Ryder Betting Odds
Super Middleweight Title Shot in Mexico
As Alvarez vs Ryder betting odds suggest, it should be a comfortable win for the Mexican champion.
Canelo Alvarez is one of the greatest boxers of all time, and boxing betting odds predict him dispatching John Ryder without much fuss.
Those who bet on boxing are looking for an easy parlay inclusion and they could get it on Saturday.
Worth the Ride?
Ryder, a 34-year-old British boxer, has stepped up to the plate, but he faces a massive challenge against Canelo.
Although Ryder has a record of 32-5, including a win over the previously unbeaten Zach Parker, his level of opposition is lower compared to what he will face against Canelo.
Ryder has never fought anyone on the same level as Canelo, and his recent loss to Callum Smith raises concerns about his chances in this fight, which is why he’s the underdog with Alvarez vs Ryder betting odds.
To have a chance at winning, Ryder needs to apply early pressure to Canelo and come out head-hunting. Canelo is known for his stamina and ability to perform well in the later rounds, so Ryder needs to take advantage of the earlier rounds.
Ryder’s knockout of Bilal Akkawy in 2019 shows that he has the power to cause damage, and he needs to replicate that effort to have a chance at winning.
However, despite Ryder’s efforts, Canelo’s superior skills and experience make him the clear favorite in this fight.
Ryder deserves credit for stepping up to face Canelo in Mexico, but his chances of winning are slim. Canelo’s dominance in the boxing world makes him a tough opponent for any fighter, and Ryder will need to deliver an exceptional performance to pull off an upset.
“For this camp, we’ve left no stone unturned. We’ve done everything right so far,” Ryder said. “In this last week of camp, we have had a change of scenery. Just really focused as a team.
“This is the time I’ve dreamed about. I’ve worked hard, kept my head down, and I’m finally here. I just got to embrace it. No one has ever given up on me, and I’m not going to give up on myself.”
Status Quo for Canelo
Alvarez vs Ryder betting odds have Canelo at -1600, which is about as short as it gets, especially for a title fight.
Canelo, the 58-2-2 fighter, is still competing at the highest level and has shown his class and ability to perform when it matters most, as evidenced by his victory over Gennady Golovkin last year.
Although the unanimous decision victory was a close contest against the 42-1-1 fighter, it demonstrated Canelo’s ability to rise to the occasion.
After his loss to Dmitry Bivol, there were concerns about Canelo’s form, but he regained his best boxing form after dropping down in weight class.
Fighting in Zapopan, where Canelo loves to compete in front of his home crowd, only adds to his appeal. It’s worth noting that his two career losses came in the U.S., and he has never lost in Mexico.
While he is not looking past Ryder, Canelo has expressed interest in fighting Bivol again, confident in his ability to retain his belts. “That’s my goal. Everybody knows that it’s my goal. At the same weight, the same place, everything the same,” Canelo said.
However, before he can entertain the idea of a rematch, Canelo must first take care of business against Ryder. While the British boxer has shown that he can hold his own, it’s unlikely that he will be able to overcome Canelo’s superior skills and experience.
