Full undercard for Canelo Alvarez vs. John Ryder super middleweight fight

Cinco de Mayo weekend is upon us and that means Canelo Alvarez is back in the ring. This year, the Guadalajara, Mexico native is fighting in his home country for the first time since 2011. He will face John Ryder in a bid for Alvarez’s undisputed super middleweight title.

Canelo last fought in Mexico when he successfully defended his WBC junior middleweight title against Kermit Cintron in Mexico City. He had fought multiple times per year in Mexico up to that point, but has since fought exclusively in the United States.

He enters this fight with a 58-2-2 record and is coming off a unanimous decision win over Gennady Golovkin, claiming a second straight victory over GGG to close out their trilogy. That came following a fairly one-sided loss to Dmitry Bivol in a bid for the WBA light heavyweight title.

Ryder enters the fight with a 32-5 record and is coming off four straight wins. Most recently, he won the vacant WBO interim title against Zach Parker. His last loss came in 2019 against Callum Smith in a bid for the WBA and The Ring super middleweight titles. Canelo claimed those belts from Smith a year later when he beat him in the Alamodome.
