Infamous Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin I judge Adelaide Byrd, who awarded an incomprehensible 117-111 to the Mexican in 2017, is overlooking this bout.
Luckily, the traffic is so one-way that there shouldn't be any room for debate this time round.
RD: 7
Another round to Ruiz. That's seven out of seven, plus the extra point for the knockdown, putting him well beyond reach.
RD: 8
Guevara does finally offer Ruiz a slight reminder that he is indeed present in there, but it's by no means enough to win the round.
RD: 9
Ruiz pins Guevara in the corner and unleashes a fine combination to the body before being smothered. We go to the final round of this formality.
FINAL BELL
The last bell tolls on this tepid ten round encounter. In Ruiz's defence, Guevara did make himself hard to look good against.
