Callum Smith Overcomes John Ryder With Questionable Scores
Liverpool, UK - WBA super middleweight champion Callum Smith (26-0, 19 KOs) won what was an unpolular decision to some, with a twelve round unanimous decision over John Ryder (28-5, 16 KOs). The scores were 117-111, 116-112, 116-112.
There wasn't much in the first round, as they were feeling each other out. Ryder put in a few small attacks. The southpaw style of Ryder was getting past Smith, as he was landing head shots when coming inside.
Smith began to have a better third with his jab. Ryder came out firing in the fourth and taking the fight to Smith in close. Smith sustained a cut around the right eye from a clash of heads.
Smith was letting his hands go more often in the fifth. There was damage to the right eye of Smith. Smith continued to get his hands going and landing on Ryder in the sixth. Ryder was backing Smith up to the ropes in the seventh and forcing Smith to fight.
Both had their moments in the eight. The ninth was close, but Ryder continued to press forward and landing shots on the inside. Smith was being bulled back in the tenth and unable to get the shots off that he wanted. Smith was more active with his punches in the eleventh, but he was still getting tagged by hard punches.
Smith looked exhausted in the twelfth and Ryder was pushing forward. Smith was doing his best to fight him off, but he didn't land much.

This guy needs to give it away. Granted that it was always going to be a pretty tough order to live up to his father's legacy but the positive drugs tests, failures to make weight and now throwing in the towel surely confirm that he has no future in the fight game?

I agree. Here's the defense: https://fightnews.com/julio-cesar-chavez-jr-has-a-broken-nose/64739

Errol Spence: I'll Be Back in May or June, Started Training
By Jake Donovan Published On Sat Dec 21, 2019, 09:38 PM EST
Errol Spence insists he’s ready to defend his throne.
An exclusive interview conducted with Fox Sports on Saturday evening marked the first public appearance for the unbeaten, unified titlist since injuries sustained in a horrific single car crash this past October in downtown Dallas. Spence spent six days in Methodist Dallas Medical Center, after which he was released and subsequently charged with a single count of Class B misdemeanor Driving While Intoxicated (DWI).
The charge remains a legal matter, but Spence insists he is otherwise prepare to pick up where he left off in the ring and resume his role as the best welterweight in the world.
“I’m fighting around May or June,” Spence (26-0, 21KOs) insisted to Fox Sports’ Brian Kenny. “I already started training. I hit the mitts. I’m feeling real good and ready to come back.”
The 29-year old from Desoto, Texas has been out since a 12-round split decision win over Shawn Porter (30-3-1, 17KOs) in a leading Fight of the Year candidate this past September in Los Angeles, California. Immediately following the win came the in-ring reveal of his next facing former two-division titlist Danny Garcia, as the bout was due to take place January 25 live on Fox Sports Pay-Per-View.
Those plans were obviously put on hold following the aforementioned crash, which totaled his car and left him with still visible facial scars. With the insistence that all sustained injuries were cosmetic, came the promise of setting his sights on the best of the rest in the welterweight division.
“I’m rejuvenated and ready to return,” revealed Spence. “I don’t want a tune-up fight; I want a top fight. Manny Pacquaio. Danny Garcia—I was supposed to fight [Garcia] in January but I had the accident.
“I am the top dog in the division. I am the king of the welterweight division. None of those guys wanted me to come back . I’ll definitely be back summertime… summer or spring, I’ll definitely be back next year.”

Funny how he doesn't mention Crawford's name as a prospective opponent, he never does!
