Now then, as promised, we said that we will bring you a second show off the weekend

following the very, very sad news that Ricky Hatton has passed away.

At the age of 46 years of age, this news came in to us whilst we were in Las Vegas in the early

hours of Sunday morning and it completely not to us both for six, hence the delay in the release

of our boxing review from the weekend and I'm sure it's done the exact same thing for you.

This show that we're doing is, well, it's labeled as a tribute and it's done the exact same thing for you. This show that we're doing is, well, it's labeled as a

tribute and it's supposed to be that. I'm sure there'll be some emotional moments throughout the

course of it. But mainly it is about sharing, one, the legacy of Ricky Hatton, what he did for

British boxing and two, our own personal stories from following him as a fan,

following him as a professional,

and being in the fortunate position of maybe having a bevy with him

as an acquaintance as well.

Everybody that I know that follows boxing

in some way, shape or form as aickie hatton story the reason for that

is because he was real he was accessible he was one of us he was an ordinary man with an

extraordinary talent and that talent wasn't just fighting it was the ability to unite the people

he brought us all together. And when you think of that

signature song that rang out every time he thought, it couldn't be more apt. There really was

only one Ricky Hatton. So if you've got your own tales of the great man, stick him in the comment section.

Let's smile because it happened rather than be sad because now it's no longer.

When was the first time you saw him?

First time I saw him was 99, Oldham Leisure Center.
