Comments Thread For: Hatton Blames Drinking and Drug Use on Retirement

[Irish Hitman]

I dont think any of us can judge Hatton on what he's done...We all know he liked his pint even when he was at top...but when your at the top and get Ko'd after working so hard to be the best your gonna be upset so drinking got a hold of him...

Lets just wish him the best!


Theres only one...

^^^^ This right here. Let's not kick a dog while he's down people, it's so easy to shoot people down let's see how many of you encouarge him to do right and live well with himself and family....

I wish nothing but the best for Ricky Hatton. Some people here make it all sound so easy to just stop and walk the straight and narrow, but if Ricky has an addictive personality, which it seems he does, it won't be easy for him at all. Have a bit of empathy for god's sake. "There but for the grace of God go I" and all that.

Yep good luck to him man had a great career .No shame in loseing to the 2 best fighters of our era .Hopefully he gets himself on the straight and narrow .I hate the booze as well man it's a curse.

Is Hatton gonna snitch the person out who provided him with the coke? It sounds like the cops want him to.

I'd be willing to bet that his retirement was a result of his drinking and drug use more so than his drinking and drug use was a result of his retirement. Regardless, I always was a Hatton fan, I was a fan of Ricky as a person as much as a boxer, and I really wish him the best.

I wish him all the best in trying to kick these habits but, you have to admit it was quite silly in the first instance.
This is the real test for him harder than any he ever faced in the ring and if he overcomes this then he should be given the upmost respect.
This will show is if he can overcome adversity and be a true warrior, best of luck Ricky Hatton.

Hatton Sorry dude

Pacquiao's left hook can make you turn to drugs, and booze.

Good luck Ricky. Hope you recover from this.
