Win Methods
At #2 in the super lightweight rankings, Richardson Hitchins — "Africa" to fight fans — is past the "prospect" stage. This is contender territory, and every fight from here is a title eliminator in disguise.
He mixes it well — 8 stoppages against 12 decisions. Enough pop to keep opponents honest, enough craft to win the rounds when the knockout doesn't come.
He arrives on a 5-fight win streak — most recently George Kambosos Jr, TKO R8. Streaks like that don't stay unnoticed for long.
