Ricky Hatton has been inactive since the May two-round KO loss to Manny Pacquiao. Hatton has been concentrating on promotional company, Hatton Promotions. In a few interviews, Hatton said that he no longer had the itch or desire to fight again. During the last few weeks, watching some of his fighters win - and getting a huge reaction during a few off-boxing events - have changed his mind. Hatton now says the itch to fight again is back. He will consider a ring return in 2010.
"It was brilliant and I must admit, when I got into the ring [during a recent appearance] and heard the crowd roar, I started thinking to myself 'I've missed this'," Hatton told Sky Sports News. "Who knows? Next year after Christmas and New Year, and after the holiday I've got booked for January, I might have a serious think about what I'm doing.
"Seeing Matthew [Hatton] and all the lads I'm promoting be successful has given me that itch back. Hearing that roar and seeing my fighters succeed, I might give it another go."
