Former junior-welterweight champ Ricky Hatton is back in the gym, igniting rumours of a possible ring return.
Rumours that the Manchester ‘Hitman’ is to fight again following such a ferocious knockout loss to pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao two months ago have been plenty, and while resuming training again at his new gym in Manchester is by no means an indication of his ring return- fighting again cannot be ruled out.
Speaking to the Daily Star, Gareth Williams, Hatton’s lawyer and chief executive officer of Hatton Promotions, said. “Ricky was often criticised for ballooning in weight between fights but he has been going to the gym purely from a fitness perspective.”
It is common knowledge his family would like him to retire and enjoy the fruits of his hard earned labour, but at the same time they also respect the final decision must lay with him.
