An earlier point about "does he need to box on for a new Sky contract ?" is a very good point that I hadnt thought of. I think David Haye had a simular situation with Satanta (before they went to the wall).

It's fantastic that Ricky drew so many fans. AND that they travelled. But as for him being a great ? An earlier poster had it right, there is a difference between "popular" and "great", the two only rarely have anything to do with eachother (what is the best SELLING newspaper in the country ? The Sun. What is the BEST newspaper in the country ?...). Christ, Robbie Williams played to more people than Frank Sinatra ever did but he's still just a fat northener (Robbie Williams that is :-))
Ricky is among one of Britains GREATEST boxers.

I think Ricky has earned the right to take however long he wants before making a decision - as long as it doesn't take as long as Naz. :TU:
