Today we lost not only one of Britain’s greatest boxers, but a friend, a mentor, a warrior, Ricky Hatton.
As fighters, we tell ourselves we’re strong — we train, we sweat, we take hits, we get up. But sometimes the hardest fight happens in silence, in the mind. Mental health isn’t weakness. It’s part of being human. And we must talk about it. We must reach out. We must lean on each other.
Ricky, thank you for everything. For your fights, your moments of glory, your grit. Thank you for pushing us, showing us what’s possible.
To everyone reading this: if you’re hurting or struggling, you are not alone. Talk. Reach out. Because we need more light, more compassion, more understanding.
Rest well, Ricky. You’ll always have your place in the ring of our memories. 🕊️💔

You know why strangers support you more than people you know? Because, the people that know you have a tough time accepting you come from the same place as them and you have sacrificed everything while they are still in the same place doing nothing.
Don’t know how these Instagram fitness models wear all pretty colour leggings to the gym. First time tonight I’ve worn grey ones and look like I’ve pissed myself 🙃
