'Devastated' Ricky Hatton Talks Retirement, Becoming a Promoter
Ricky Hatton hasn't decided yet whether he'll ever box again, but he sounded in the above interview with Sky Sports like a man who's ready to hang up the gloves and move into a career as a promoter.
"People are still going to see plenty of me," Hatton said. "I'm going into promoting now, I've got the future of youngsters and they're going to be fulfilling my dreams from here on in. I've fought for so many promoters that going into promoting I believe I can do a great, great job. I've been a great world champion, I've been the best in the world. I feel I can be the best promoter in the world, and that's the next avenue I want to go. But as far as actually boxing myself, I don't know what I'm going to do at the moment."
As for his loss on Saturday night to Manny Pacquiao, Hatton said, "I'm devastated."
