Narrative:

I was inbound to ryan airport at tucson; az at 2;200 ft AGL and had been given landing instructions from the tower to report on a 2 mile left base for runway 6 left. Other traffic was inbound from the same direction as myself and various traffic was pointed out to other inbound traffic but none to me. The next thing I knew a cessna went underneath me from right rear to left front. I am in a low wing airplane and did not see them coming up from my lower rear. I called the tower and said the cessna traffic had just passed under me and was now off to my left at my altitude. I don't remember their exact comment as I was shaken a little after having such a close call. They did not give me any instructions for avoiding the plane during the rest of the flight. I continued inbound towards the left base entry I had been instructed to do. The cessna continues on in the direction they were going when they went under me and made a downwind entry to runway 6 left from the position they were in when I reported the incident to the tower. The tower then cleared me to land on runway 6R. I assumed that was to give better separation when landing.
