Ricky Hatton just quit, saying "I don't want to put myself or Jennifer trough this any more. I don't have it any more. That's the end."

[RichC]

I'm pleased if that's the case, made the right choice and he needs to now get his head straight and move on with his life

[Daniel 7]

Still reckon he'd take Amir Khan

[Shanks]

I reckon he'll find this to be a tougher struggle than coming back..

Maybe focus on promoting his brother.

[Gibbo]

If he fights like he did tonight Khan would absolutely destroy him.

Hatton : "Even if I had squeezed over the line and got a win, I knew that was it. I just can't do it. But I'm happy, I really am happy now."

Hmm. I hope so. Brave face I think.

[Gibbo]

I really hope he stays in some sort of shape, enjoy a beer and the odd fry up yeah bit don't balloon up again.

If he looked after himself a bit more I think he would have an an even better career.

[Chazza]

That's the key to it now.

If he goes back into promoting or training or whatever he does he needs to look after himself a bit better than he did before.

Was out, just saw that now, it was pretty ****ing rough. He should never have taken that fight, I knew it was an awful idea from the onset (called it early).

As a man I hope he is okay and doesn't make poor life choices, because deep down I think he's a nice chap. I'm happy to hear he's retired, I just hope it stays that way, that stuff in the post fight conference about him being a champion and a proud man might just mean he steps into the ring one more time regardless, and if he does, it won't be pretty [again].

[Fosterbloke]

How much money would he have made from this fight?

[Vermilion]

Fair play to him. Nothing but respect for him and how he's handled this.

He wanted a question answered, a question only he could answer in the ring, he didn't come in saying i'm the big man and i'm going to deck him.

Moves on with his life now hopefully, with no nagging doubts.

Well, last night didn't go to plan I really wanted a happy ending but it wasn't to be. I would like to thank my team at Hatton promotions

[Shaggy]

Ricky Hatton MBE @HitmanHatton
And bob Shannon my trainer for everything they did for me on this long road back. If you're not aware last night at the press conference

Ricky Hatton MBE @HitmanHatton
I retired once and for all from boxing. Last night I came to find out if I still ha it at world level, I haven't. Redemption is what I wanted

Ricky Hatton MBE @HitmanHatton
And that is what I got. I needed to find out. I am heartbroken but like I said before the fight, win lose or draw I can retire a happy man.

Ricky Hatton MBE @HitmanHatton
The atmosphere the fans created last night was sensational again so I extend a huge thank you to each and every one of you. I am so so sorry

Ricky Hatton MBE @HitmanHatton
It isn't there anymore. But I can retire happy. I have the answer I needed x

[Fivex]

That's good.

[Darth Marty]

It is. I think, hope, that the comeback was done to find himself, blow away those coke issues & to get back in shape. Theres no doubt at all that you feel better if your in shape so hopefully he will stay in reasonable shape & possibly go into commentary or something, hes always popular & id like to see him on the big shows. Hopefully he can keep active enough to keep him from getting depressed again.

I hope he makes up with his family though because he seemed a family guy through the years ive watched his fight buildups.
