ricky has been victim of his rhythm of life at the highest level of the competition. PErhaps that drinking a LOT and losing 40-50 pounds before a fight can work fine when you fight some good boxers, but when you hit the top of the elite and that you've done that repeatedly in your life.... it catches you up at some moment. That's what happened to Ricky, even harder because he has a very bad style (i.e not very defensive) to get exposed in an even bolder statment.
