Ricardo Delgado (born July 13, 1947) is a former boxer from Mexico, who was a Gold Medalist at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City during his career as an amateur in the flyweight division (– 51 kg).

Pro career

Delgado turned pro in 1969 and had limited success. After being undefeated in his first ten fights, he lost a decision to Davey Vasquez in 1971, a bout in which Delgado was knocked down once in the 5th and 6th rounds. Delgado's career went downhill after the loss and he retired four years later with a career record of having won 14, lost 12, and drawn 5.
