EITHER Ricky Hatton has shrunk or WWE superstars Batista and Undertaker are even bigger in real life than on the telly.
The wrestlers visited Ricky in his Manchester gym yesterday to pick up some tips before performing in a Smackdown show at the city’s MEN Arena.
And the boxer – who takes his 'Hitman' nickname from grappling legend Bret Hart – was over the moon.
He told us: “I have watched wrestling ever since I was a kid and am a huge WWE fan.
“I remember me and my brother wrestling in the living room... we always ended up breaking the furniture!
“It was great to have The Undertaker and Batista along to the gym, even though they make me look so small!"
The WWE pair, who meet in a match at next week’s Cyber Sunday PPV, returned the compliment.
The Undertaker is due to attend Ricky’s huge upcoming title fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr in Las Vegas this December.
And Batista said: “I am an even bigger fan of Ricky now after shooting the breeze with him and watching him train.
“He is a down to earth guy and an incredible athlete.”
