Ricky Hatton Dead, Aged 46 Boxing

[David76]

I still can't get my head around this. Such sad news. I used to love watching Hatton's fights, the atmosphere was always electric, and he gave his all and left everything in the ring.

Away from his boxing, seeing clips of him online shows he had a brilliant sense of humour, and he was very humble and would help anyone. I don't think anyone had a bad word to say about him.

I know he had his demons but he seemed to be winning that battle. I know nothing has been confirmed yet, but there are rumours online, and the statement released by his family today seems to indicate he took his own life.

I haven't watched this yet, but it was only recorded a few days before his death and going off what Barker has said, he seemed to be in really good spirits. Just shows that you never know what goes on behind closed doors, and if anyone is feeling low to the point of being suicidal, then please speak to someone.
