Restless British veteran Ricky Hatton, who is no fool to knock over a pint of Guinness or an opponent in the ring, has reported that he has contracted Dupuytren’s disease. The boxer underwent surgery on his palm to avoid its progression.
The Brit hasn’t officially fought since 2012, but returned to the ring in November for an exhibition fight with Marco Antonio Barrera.
Ricky said that after that he could not hit or even hold his paws for the last three months.
