According to the Manchester Evening News, former two-division champion Ricky Hatton is possibly going to obtain a trainer's licence as early as next month. Hatton officially announced his retirement from boxing in July, and runs a thriving promotional company [Hatton Promotions], but wants to help his fighters in the corner as well.

“I’d like to be a trainer. I’ve got Hatton Promotions and a great staff working for me. Where we’ve come from as a promotional company is a credit to me and the people who work for me. I want to bring fighters through and champions through," Hatton said.
