Thread: Ricky Hatton A Stand Up Comedian?

This should be interesting.

If any of you from across the pond actually go and see one of his shows, make sure that you report back, and let us know how he does.

Hatton has pretty good comedian skills. Watching him head butt the corner post always makes me laugh

Is Benny Hill rolling over yet ?

Doing stand up comedy might be more ballsy then stepping into the ring. That's a rough trade, even people who are naturally hilarious can absolutely bomb on stage.

I am almost 100% sure were gonna see footage of this.
It's gonna be great.

I suspect Hattons routine will be very much in the vain of Chubby Brown and Bernard Manning, albeit without the racist jokes.

He cant do any worse than some of the shite American comedians Ive heard recently. Dat Phan, Michelle Cho, Carlos Mencia etc are absolutely fucking shocking.

This is not a new thing. He has taken to the stage before to do a bit of stand up. He is actually quite funny as he takes the piss out of himself and his own family more than out. One of his lines actually takes the piss out of mayweather knocking him out.

absoloutley hilarious, people will call them sexist, racist etc etc but those who are able to read between the lines of a joke and actual reality find them very funny.

Hattons a massive fan of both as you saw in a sky documentary and will go down the same blue-english comedy style.

LOL, And the joke after the fight at the post conference where he said he slipped was even more funny.

Funny this topic came up cuz I'm going to one the 16th August right here in Liverpool. We got the VIP Tickets for £75 and that includes a 3 course meal and a private meet and greet with Ricky. Then he does his famous standup. I'm gonna take my camera and a couple of gloves for him to sign.

I'll let you guys/girls know what went on

Any special requests you want me to ask him ??

It is all a big mix up...

This all came from a few people who attended one of his after dinner speaches. As most know hatton does a lot of dinner talks, and one he done some months after the mayweather fight a the crowd thought he wad doing stand up because of his comments on he believing he could win a rematch with mayweather, the reson he lost the first fight was down to the ref and only the ref and that he would stand a chance with a future fight against De LA Hoya.

Hatton wasn't trying to be funny, he was dead serious.
