Comments Thread For: Ricky Hatton Finally Details Violent Brawl With His Dad

That is just one side to the story. Family feuds are horrific, I'm sure it's more complicated then 'my Dad attacked me, I told him to stop. He wouldn't listen so i cracked him now I'm all broken up'.

Airing personal **** like this (the fighting with dad not the depression part) should never be done unless it has been resolved or you are on your deathbed. Athletes writing autobiographies when they are in there 30s and 40s is ridiculous.

I agree to a point but to get better you have to admit your shortcomings

I hope Ricky cleans up his act and i wish him well. Suicide is never the answer.

I don't think he is being completely honest about his past with substance abuse. I don't usually indulge in rumours, but I have heard far too many accounts from people over the years, that it even goes back to before the Mayweather fight.

However, I am glad that he getting help and hopefully back on the right road. The issues with his family is terrible. There are no winners in that situation.

Bloody hell it should have been a wake up call for Ricky to realise he was truly shot when a 60 year old 5'5 guy with no fighting experience whatsoever can catch you with a punch

You never expect your own father to punch you on your face, no matter how bad the situation has turned out to be. You don't prepare for something like that, ever! Don't try to clown around here trying to make fun of other people's tough situations bro.

Ricky should be more depressed because of Cortez, that MF ***ed his fight up big time.

the difference is that the hattons are idiots

Lol, thinking the Hatton's are dumber than the Mayweathers who most of the time can't even form proper sentences. Get a grip.

He's just being honest, like he has always been.

What would you have done if your dad was attacking you?
