    Loved watching Ricky,great career and seems a thoroughly nice lad.Unfortunately all sportsmen have their "moment" and when that is over it's always very difficult to recapture.

    It was a stinker because there wasn't any big punchers in the fight it was always going to be a points win for someone, In the Maritnez and Mitchell fights both of those guys were called bangers and there was action expected and delivered but no one expected Ricky to beat either of them the way he did.

    He combined them both. In world title fights he knocked out Santiago Brodie, Kedebe (not hard) Mendina, Estrada, Abelyn, so winning 6 /11 world title fights by knockout, 5 of which in first 6 rounds shows me you have power at FW. Look at Punch that broke Brodies ribs, and some of shots that dropped Mendina, really hard shots
