Ricardo Malajika

"Magic Man". That's what they call Ricardo Malajika, and is ranked #6 at super flyweight — close enough to smell the title, dangerous enough that champions don't say his name too loudly.

Judges are mostly decorative at his fights. 12 of 17 wins have come inside the distance, a 71% KO rate that shapes how every opponent trains for him.

The form line is loud: 5 straight wins, the latest over Vince Paras (Decision (Unanimous)). Momentum like that forces the division's hand.
