Hatton back on the drink

[TheGoods]

I wasn't aware Ricky was hitting the ale hard again. Bit sick reading this as I thought he'd got himself together and cut the booze binges out as he's been looking fresh on TV. Sad as well that he's still not got things sorted with his mam n dad.

Nothing like keeping your name in the press in the run up-to Christmas when you've got a book to flog !!!

[keithmoonhangover]

Must be true is it's in the Mirror.

[stujones]

Horrible story, hope its not true.... Whatever you think of Hatton's talent in the ring its a sad tale.... a hero to millions.

Don't think he got the closure he wanted from his comeback - just was all wrong. I do wonder if what Brook did to Schenkenko might have affected Hatton's mindset - as Hatton gave Schenkenko a chance and has been calling him geniune world class since his own fight.

One look at his twitter says it's bollocks. When he was supposedly out of it he was taking his family to the Christmas markets and managed to remember it was Paulie Malignaggi's birthday and it was 5 years to the day since their fight.

To be fair though mate, was there actually pictures of that? Ricky might of been tweeting stuff like that to protect his own back so to speak.

Teddy's Toupee saw him the other week at an amateur show with his mum and his son and said he looked well.

One of him with his daughter, mentioned before that he was going there with them, then on to Froch-Groves later like the Mirror article said. Was out with his daughter again yesterday too.

Ah fair enough

[Spud]

I prefer to remember Ricky as a fantastic servant to british boxing.

His private life is exactly that, if Ricky needs help then its up to those who he is close to, to sort it.

Leave the bloke alone.

[Parson Cross]

Someone saw Ricky out with his mum ?
Really ?

[Deno1986]

Ah yes, The Mirror and their trustworthy "sources". I'd trust my worst enemy more than a tabloid newspaper.

Well said, if someone started to expose our private lives non of us would have any friends.

Spot on

[Darcy Delaney]

so what was the argument with his parents about I know it was money but what's happened ?

[mickey1975]

They were probably under the same roof if his son was boxing.

[vargas]

You've got to love the way they refer to his mates "tiny" terraced house. Which he probably pays for by doing a bit of hard graft and not by writing lies in a Sunday rag.

His mum was at the show. I didn't see her and Ricky together at any time. He looked a bit ruddy-faced but that might've been down to him looking a fair bit over his fighting weight rather than the ill-effects of booze. By the way, the kid from the club I help out at beat Ricky's lad on a majority decision, although it could have gone either way to be honest.

My lips are sealed, palooka.

yep. Most terraced houses I've seen look, erm, exactly the same size. Don't really need a description.
Love him or loathe him, these kind of headlines do have an effect of making you look - c*nts like the Mirror love to trade on any form of misery. They are sick parasites really. Low class journalism by low class people.

ha ha good shout, it's probably like a dolls house inside it too

[whiskey]

Nothing wrong with a terraced house.

The lion's share of the mirror's readership live in one.

With regards the point of the story ? Sad if true.

[Wales]

so what was the argument with his parents about I know it was money but what's happened ?

If you were working for me, and I was giving my dad the money to pay you, but you said you weren't getting it, but my dad said you were I'd believe my dad. I'd then be pretty pissed if it went as far as court before me dad told me he wasn't paying you.

Naturally The above has got nothing to do with Hatton - I'm just saying id be annoyed if that happened to me.

Not just someone; Teddy's Toupee, a reliable source who does not drink to excess.
