Reno boxer Ricardo Lucio-Galvan inks deal with Vegas group
Ricardo Lucio-Galvan is ready to answer the bell, but he needs the phone to ring before he can step back into the ring. Expect to see “The Dreamer” back in action soon.
After several months of negotiations, Lucio-Galvan has signed a four-year contract with newly licensed Las Vegas based boxing management group VegasStar Boxing. The organization is headed by Bill Nelson, a Las Vegas court reporter originally from Youngstown, Ohio, and from a boxing family with more than 50 years combined experience in the industry and partner Marvin Simeon, a Las Vegas attorney who works out at the Mayweather Boxing Club.
