RICKY HATTON has come out of retirement to claim redemption in the ring.
‘The Hitman’ has not fought for three years, but yesterday confirmed his comeback, as exclusively revealed by Starsport last month.
The former two-time world champion insists his return has nothing to do with money, though – he just wants to make his kids proud of their dad again. Click Here To Read More]
The problem is, Mayweather proved he could not handle the elite. This resulted in Hatton firing his entire career long team. The rest is history...
If he's making a come back he can stick with second rate fighters like he did right after Floyd beat him. Khan, Pauli and Judah would be good fights for Hatton at this point.
Lets hope Bob doesn't get any ideas of a Pac Hatton II once Hatton beats a bum. I wish Hatton the best though.
if redemption is beating b grade fighters then maby you can do it ricky. dont see how beating paulie featherfists is redemption for getting beaten by floyd and destroyed by pacman but i never could figure out a coke heads way of thinking. that division is pretty stacked and this wont be pretty for hatton. shoulda stayed retired.
Wouldn't mind seeing Hatton vs. Marquez, Hatton vs. Lopez, Hatton vs. Garcia, just to see what he can do. Not sure he can do much of anything at this point, but the last thing boxers lose is their pride.
It's funny to hear all this whining Ricky shouldn't fight he is going to get hurt well he is his own damn man he doesn't need to listen to no keyboard warriors telling not to fight. He can do whatever the hell he wants shut up and let the man fight if he wins he wins if he loses he loses. He wants to go out the way he wants who is anybody to tell him other wise. Its funny these negative comments coming from people either sitting on there couch, desk, and bed tell him not to fight. When 95% of the posers dont even freaking box. LMAO you chumps make yourself look bad. WAR HATTON!!!!!!:boxing:
Coming from a huge Hatton fan I'm hoping he fights someone without a punch...or speed...or skill. I think this ends terribly but hey I'll be cheering him on either way. War Ricky!!!
I've had, and still have, many of the same problems as Hatton. With more money /or whatever reason I wouldn't be typing now.
He wasn't the best but he was ****ing charismatic. His weigh ins alone were better than half the fights since he last fought.
I can name ten better British boxers since 1960 (maybe more), 20 over all time.
I am pessimistic over his comeback but I wish him the best and do hope I am wrong.
You didnt let anyone down in the ring! Hatton got thumped by two champions several notches in talent above himself. Nothing to be ashamed of getting destroyed by Pacquiao. You let nobody down in the ring. Hatton let everyone down outside the ring, within his own personal life. How can you not keep the two separate, and not go into a life of depression. Redeem yourself OUTSIDE the ring. Who cares about what they think of you as a fighter. Care about what your thought of as a father, as a man outside the ring. Climbing back into the ring is to satisfy your own ego, your pride, both that will lead you to getting stopped again in the ring, no matter who you fight.
Actually he did pretty good against floyd and won at least 3 rounds against him. And he fought floyd at 147 which isn't his best weight. He was lineal champ at 140.
Floyd is one maybe 2 notches above Hatton MAX
Pac on the other hand was on another planet
Ur a f@ckin pu$$y the man want to redeem himself and that's best comment u can put do all of us a favor throw urself off a cliff. Punk!

Good thing ur a nobody he doesn't care about ur opinion I give the man props for getting back in the ring after what he has gone through. That y ur typing hate while he actually gets off his ass and do something positive. Stick to being a keyboard warrior that's all u will ever be.
yep sure okay w.e pal
You are going to rematch Manny?
And then take on Floyd?
He is still on coke imo
