Good luck on the new path and hope you have a great future ahead, gave us boxing fan's some great nights and you made yourself some good money and great memory's, don't see it as the end, but a new beginning, all the best to a true fighting man.
Throwback fighter and an absolute gent. Retiring with his faculties in tact, money in the bank and a new career to get stuck into. Great interview Jamie, spoke for every boxing fan with ur words at the end, all the best John 🦍
Well done John, good to see you leaving the round square behind and taking your expirence into coaching new talent, I think you'll be one of the most thernominal?? Coaches to walk our shores, hands together for John Ryder.....👏👏🙏✌️
Farewell Gorilla. A good, honest pro that had class in and out of the ring. He will make a great trainer, especially as he's experienced the highs and lows of the sport at the top level. All the best brother. 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
I always loved the way John Ryder fought, nice and compact tight. Basics done well. And he done a lot better than I think he ever fought he would have dreamed of, shared a ring with canelo. Hope u made good money and good luck for the future
Glad John, got a nice fat paycheck with Nelo. Well deserved. He goes out as a top 168 pounder. No doubt about that. The people’s champion the gorilla Ryder, out man 🇲🇽🇬🇧
Happy retirement, some great fight nights, absolute warrior, gave it his all n came short but great example. We all know you should have beaten Callum that night, so a champion in my eyes.
I have more respect for the Gorilla than Canelo. Ryder went toe to toe with some of the best and is not a chump just trying to “outbox” and run the whole fight. I hope they bring him out at least one more time against Caleb Plant or some other American. Maybe a 4th of July weekend fight? Man they should hire me as a match maker or something….
You don't always have to be a winner to be a winner. Hold your head up high. You fought the best and did not duck anyone. Good luck John.
Perfectly put mate.
Y'all closed your eyes at that drive huh 🤣
A real fighting man. A true servant to the sport. All the best John!
Glad he’s got he’s health and everything’s all ticking there aswell
He lives up to his name The Gorilla ❤
One of the sport's good guys & great entertainer & warrior in the ring. Wish him all the best in whatever he chooses to do

He's took 2 terrific beatings that Matchroom earned from?
Oh you are just a clown… it’s clear now 🤡🤡🤡
🤣 retires right after payday, but he didn't take a dive right 🤣
At least Frank Bruno used to get a couple of easy fights between beatings?
Silly comment really.
Good. He was a good bum. He did well in avoiding a fight with Morell Jr. He would have been in a coma as we speak 😂😂😂
Daniel Jacobs beat him .
Good luck for the future John we all know that you beat Smith & got robbed
Luv this! ❤️
