Hit man retires

Another athlete retiring... actually the word retired is more suitable

Ricky 'Hit Man' Hatton retires after being knocked out by Manny 'Pac-Man' Pacquiao 18 months ago.

I think the Pac-Man didn't just knock some sense into the Hit Man, he took the dudes balls away.

In a BBC article Hatton describe himself as 'hitting rock bottom and it almost drove me insane' This was after we all found out he used cocaine and blah blah blah the rest is history.

The bottom line is that I don't want to mack around with someone like Manny if one KO punch practically took me not only the hospital but to rehab.

Daaammmnnnn, Manny what did they feed you?

Oh well, enough about that horrible KO, back to the issue at hand. Mr. Hatton.

Truthfully speaking, Ricky was one of my favorite fighters (when he is fit) because he didn't just hit strong but he hit SCARY!! He only lost two of his fights (the aforementioned Pacquiao fight and Mayweather Jr.) Both can be considered the best fighters of this generation. No shame in that.

Toast to a you, Mr. Hatton for giving us great fights to watch and all the best with your future endeavours

Some of his career highlights

 I've gotta put this in, his rude awakening by Pac-Man
