Ricardo Arredondo (May 26, 1949 in Apatzingan, Michoacán, Mexico – September 20, 1991) was a Mexican professional boxer. A former WBC Super Featherweight champion, he 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.
