Ricardo Arredondo, (b. May 26, 1949 in Apatzingan, Michoacan, Mexico; d. September 20, 1991), was a Mexican professional boxer. Arredondo was the brother of two-time World Light Welterweight champion Rene Arredondo.
Arredondo turned pro in 1968 and in 1971 challenged Hiroshi Kobayashi for the WBA super featherweight title, but lost a decision. Later that year he took on Yoshiaki Numata for the WBC super featherweight title, and captured the belt with a KO victory. He defended the belt five times before losing it to Kuniaki Shibata via decision in 1974.
