Ricardo Mayorga (31-8-1, 25KOs), a former champion at welterweight and junior middleweight, plans to slim down in weight and wants big fights in 2015. Mayorga, 41-years-old, returned to the sport in September after more than three years of inactivity. He stopped Allen Medina in one round in Oklahoma City.

He was back again on Saturday night, this time in his native Managua, and stopped Andrik Saralegui in the fifth round. Mayorga fought at the light heavyweight limit for that fight, weighing in at 173-pounds last Friday and looking very slow and heavy with the added pounds.

He intends to drop down to the middleweight limit of 160-pounds and would like a fight with the division king, WBA/IBO champion Gennady Golovkin. Mayorga also mentioned former champion Felix Sturm, who is undecided on whether he intends to keep fighting at 168 or return to 160.
