Former UFC heavyweight champ Ricco Rodriguez lost in a split decision Tuesday night as boxing returned to the Las Vegas Hilton.

Rodriguez looks huge. But not in a good way like Kaspars Kambala. Ricco tipped the scales at 270 pounds.

Let’s put it this way, Ricco doesn’t look very suave.

He had Xtreme Couture boxing coach Ron Frazier in his corner and wore a pair of trunks with a Throwdown logo in an odd homage to MMA.

They really know what they are talking about dont they 270lbs is a good weight for Ricco since he was over 300lbs, obviously he still needs to lose another 20 or 30 but he is smaller than he was so
