    Tug of War For Ricky Hatton's Return

    The Manchester Evening News reports that Wembley Stadium has made a very big financial bid for Ricky Hatton's next fight. Hatton is currently in talks to return in hometown on May 24 at Manchester City's Eastlands. Officials for Wembley have made a serious counter-offer to stage Hatton's return on May 31. [details]

      As am I. I'd actually like to enjoy a Sunday one of these days not stay up all night and sleep throughout the day, it becomes pathetic. I mean OUR Joe Calzaghe vs Mikkel Kessler fight was put forward just for those yanks to watch.

        Wayto go Ricky, it's great to see that a fighter always thinks about his fans. They are the ones that make you or break you. That's why his fans give him so much LOVE.

          Hatton is not just a boxer, he's always been a huge boxing fan so he knows how much it means for his fans to get what they have they deserve.

            Ricky Hatton is a real stand up guy and it says alot to have him give back to the fans like this. Turning down an extra million is a very hard thing to do. I doubt that " Money " or the " Golden Boy " would do the same. Viva La Hitman!

              NONE! Not to watch Ricky Hatton fight anyway. We have always thought that he was overrated, and now we know.

                That's cool that Hatton wants to fight in Manchester and on English time for his fans. It's all right with me because his opponent probably won't be somebody that will really challenge him, so watching it in the afternoon here in the states won't be a problem.

                  Good man.
                  It will be good to watch a fight at a decent hour for a change.
