Will Ricky ever scale the heights of the Tszyu fight win again?

I thought Ricky won last night, had him by 115-113. However, he did seem tired to me, especailly in the last few rounds. More than what Urango was, anyway.

Hatton is off on a family cruise soon. I've heard there is around 24 people going? We all know Ricky lets himself go by the wayside in between fights, but I'm just wondering if all the "bad living" maybe just starting to take effect on Ricky when he fights?

Also, what are we to think of proposed matches with the likes of Castillo, Cotto, Mayweather etc?

I think Ricky felt Urango's strength in there. That has to be a factor. I remember Mayweather seemed to feel Baldomir's stength in some quiet early moments. Must have more of a bearing if you're a career pressure fighter.

Yes I think his lifestyle Is catching up with Ricky.

His work rate wasn't as high as It used to be and not even as much as It was with Callazo.

He had more defence and skill though than he did with Callazo.
