Ricky: before the chips!

Like a clown I forgot to take my door key and I had to wait for my girlfriend was out having her nails done and she had to come and let me in. While I was waiting Speakie, my agent, got pie and chips and I have to admit I knicked a couple of his chips. Heaven!

Friday, May 23

Today is the day of the weigh-in and I made weight comfortably at 139lbs 11oz - exactly the same as Lazcano.

Our Kid made the weight as well without any problem. Just before I did the weigh-in I did some shots to camera for Sky Sports.

It seems they have some new technology that is like 3-D so I threw a few punches to the camera. It has to be said that Sky always seems to lead the way especially in their boxing. That reminds me... don't miss the fight on Sky Box Office.

I don't like to mess about at the weigh-in. I juts like to get on the scales do the weight and then off home.

Like a clown I forgot to take my door key and I had to wait for my girlfriend was out having her nails done and she had to come and let me in.

While I was waiting Speakie, my agent, got pie and chips and I have to admit I knicked a couple of his chips. Heaven!

As soon as I make weight I start to rehydrate with my supplement drinks.

My girlfriend Jennifer made some pasta for me and during the course of the night I snacked away watching TV relaxing.

Tomorrow is the big day and I want to rest and get myself focused for tomorrow's fight. I can't wait and it can't come soon enough.

Thanks for reading my diary and until the next time

Love Ricky
