Ricky Hatton's boxing comeback is now off with the fight set to be rescheduled. It comes after the main event on the night between Hughie Fury - Tyson Fury's cousin - and Michael Hunter was cancelled with the former falling ill. The entire card has now been scrapped.
It is a a big blow for Fury and also Hatton. The Manchester legend has lost almost three stone in just two months in preparation for the fight and has even been mistaken for his own son, Campbell Hatton, during his training and weight loss transformation.
Hatton was due to right Mexican legend Marco Antonio Barrera and the contest will now be rescheduled. Hatton had insisted it is not the start of a real comeback and the fight at Manchester Arena will have no decision and neither man will ‘go for the kill’.
