Floyd Mayweather Jr. Urges Ricky Hatton to Retire
Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather is back, and he’s still got advice for vanquished foe Ricky Hatton…
Floyd Mayweather Jr. believes that Ricky Hatton should bow out of boxing after the Englishman’s disappointing defeat to Manny Pacquiao earlier this month.
Mayweather, who beat Hatton by technical knockout in December 2007, believes it is time the Manchester-born “Hitman” thinks about preserving his health and looks to new goals outside the ring:
“I think Ricky Hatton’s career was over after our fight,” Mayweather told Sky Sports News. “When I faced him he was a great competitor, but the best man on the night won. He worked his whole life to get to that point and he came up short, and it’s hard to then keep getting to that level.“
