Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez has defended his undisputed super-middleweight crown on points against Britain's John Ryder in front of 50,000 Mexican fans.

The Mexican champion dominated the fight and dropped Ryder in round five, but the Londoner fought back well.

Two judges scored the bout 118-109 and the other 120-107 to Alvarez.

The fight was Ryder's sixth loss in 38 bouts and he has now twice failed at world title level, after being defeated by Briton Callum Smith for the WBA 'Super' title back in 2019.
