Mayweather urges Hatton to quit
BOXING: Floyd Mayweather Jnr has lashed out at “gun-shot” Ricky Hatton and urged him to quit following his two-round demolition by Manny Pacquiao.
Mayweather subjected Hatton to a first defeat in December 2007 and said: “Ricky’s career was over in 2007 when he met me.”
He added: “Gaining weight and drinking – you can’t have that sort of lifestyle in boxing. You have to take your job seriously. I don’t think Ricky should fight again.
“I wouldn’t fight him again, even at Wembley. It would be like picking on a guy that we call ‘gun-shot, gun-shot’.”
