It's a tough choice for someone like him. Stay in the division and hear nothing but crickets coming from potential opponents..... or scale the divisions and risk facing much bigger men with more power and more chin. I wish him all the success in the world.

Agreed. I'm not sure what people are talking about when they say things like to bad he's in such a noncompetitive unseen division. Its one of the most if not thee most competitive weight areas in boxing. Its not watched because the western world is sold on bigger is better and the combatants higher up resemble our own size structure generally.

He's every bit as good as Lopez was and Ricardo suffered exposure and money wise compared to everyone else also. Trouble for these little guys is that many are within a few pounds of what they walk around at on fight night and not fighting 2 or 3 divisions south of their in shape walk around weight. They cant just step up over a variety of reasons. A guy like Gonzalez might have to add mass and if he did, would he be the same fighter? 115 might be his ceiling if he cant get more at Fly and its there where he will start running into guys that are bigger then their weight. Rock and a hard place.

If you liked his last fight watch this. Estrada gave him a hell of a fight and the rematch is the biggest fight that can be made at that weight. OK, maybe that Japanese Monster guy whateverhisnameis but a rematch of this would be a guaranteed FOTY candidate.
