Thread: Ricky Hatton talks about the violent brawl with his dad

Ricky Hatton Finally Details Violent Brawl With His Dad - Boxing News

Jesus, what a mess that guy turned into outside the ring.

I suppose this book is probably his version of 'Bouncing Back' by Alan Patridge. I read his last book, but it was definitely very airbrushed with its rise to the top, 'one of the lads' approach.

Hopefully the brawl with Dad will be put into the end of the book fight chronology to bump up the record of his latter career.

The fuck is wrong with these people. Why would you even want to tell stories about chinning your dad and falling out with your family. Could understand it if it was for money but this funker is loaded

Who cares would be my question.

Looks like he's not expecting a reunion with his dad anytime soon. What a thing to say.

He may be trying to sell his book but he does have issues of depression which he needs to address. Not a good thing to have him as your manager.

My first thought was why make that public, no class at all from Hatton.

As long as he didn't foul his dad he's still a role model right Beanz


There's only ONE Ricky Hatton

I have never once claimed that Hatton should be a role model you seriously need to let it go now Lyle. Wlad is engaged and you have missed your chance.

How VERY dare you talk about the fine upstanding citizen that is Ricky Hatton that way!


Relax chief, just busting your balls....doesn't take a lot to wind you up

It seems money is the problem again, trouble is when large sums of money are involved,
the old green eyed monster comes out in people.
Great pity but family's, and there problems are not uncommon but when your in the public eye,
people do seem to air there dirty washing in public.

Couldn't even knock out a 60 year old man.

Was this before or after the bouncer laid Ricky out?

He probably clinched about a dozen times too.

Tired of hearing this guy's sob stories.

Don't pay attention if it bothers you, why are people so silly about shit on here... Hatton was a terrific fighter and obviously a bit of a troubled sort, I liked him a lot but do think he's a bit thick with his publicity stuff. Figure to have had that kind of backing from fans, it was a bad trip to lose that so quickly and he didn't cope well.
