    can't say I ever liked him even though he had big fights which he lost most of them but to me he was disgraceful in a boxing ring with some of the things he did... for the life of me I could never understand how he beat Vernon Forrest twice, almost unbelievable ...

      Hope he has some $$$ saved to show for it all.
      Oh yea...I'm sure Don King told him early on that a diverse portfolio of somewhat conservative mutual funds is the best way to achieve long-term growth.

              He was in a bunch of big fights so hopefully he has enough to live on or at least opened a business or rental property to support himself in retirement. With the money he made he could probably live like a king in nicaragua with a maid and everything, assuming don king didnt rob him like he did to all his other fighters

                I agree that Ward had some more fights in him, but he saw that the competition was going to get harder if he stayed. Mayorga has been shot for years & was really only a brawler.

                    Beer Drinking, cigarette smoking Ricardo Mayorga!!!
                    Can anyone forget Larry Merchant lighting a victory smoke for the champ. He sure could hit with the best of them.
                    Ricardo was one of a kind, he walked the walked, and always gave a honest effort. Salute champ
