OH RICKY WHAT A PITY

You don't understand.
You keep on taking drugs and you'll end up on the lam.

Sounds like booze and perhaps depression are the core issues. He looks AWFUL in tha picture. Not fat, but bloated.

He's been a credit to the sport and he's only in his early thirties. I hope he gets it together.

And on the topic of fighters behaving badly here is the police report on the Mayweather domestic abuse arrest. Not pretty to read.

hope ricky gets it together and actually goes to rehab to change, not just gain some PR

It's Ricky's way of staying in shape...................

He's in shape..he's ROUND!

Yes, he seems to be a likeable guy. Hopefully Ricky cleans up and has a long, fruitful life....and never boxes again.

Likeable has nothing to do with it.
It's a lifestyle and he choose it. Now all he has to do is stay away from the limelight, boxing specifically...........

It has been brought to my attention that there is a homeless situation in Celeveland

hahah

Easy to see how he became so depressed. His loss to Pacquiao was really embarassing.

I can see how he see,s it that way, but that night, Pac would've stopped a lot of fighters in the opening stanza. Hatton was a gifted fighter, Manny's just a great, HOF fighter. Ricky needs to come to his senses and realize that he had an exceptional career and that nobody wins them all.

Ricky was the man at 140. He made boatloads of money. He has a wife who is attractive (and damn well wouldn't be with him if he wasn't rich Ricky Hatton). If you made it to Ring Champ in a division and ended your career with only 2 losses (against the best 2 fighters of the time) then you have done amazingly well.

Ricky- stop eating, drinking, and snorting yourself into oblivion.

Hatton goes to rehab.. he says the drugs are recent.. not sure if I believe that but he's obviously been drinking like a fish for quite some time (the article says he "drank 11 pints of Guinness along with glasses of vodka, wine and sambuca throughout the night").

Hear! Hear!

Ricky's right in a free society should be to do what he wants. Why else do you fight for years if the ultimate end game isn't loads of coke in a hotel with strippers around you?

Freedom isn't available when you've got devious papers around in Britain like The News Of The World and The Sun.

20 years of training & dieting & fighting & putting your ass on the line. Getting to the summit only to be smacked off of it in front of millions. Sure, that's the chance you take, but it still hurts. Hatton's gonna be out of control until either his body or his mind can't handle it anymore. He's rich...famous...adored by his fans & countrymen. Doors will continue to open for him, good & bad on the other side. This is only the beginning.
