    Was stunned when I found out he had passed away, way to young to be gone. He left his mark on the sport and will always be a beloved sporting icon in the UK. Say what you will about Hatton he put himself out there and tested himself against the best available from Tyszu to Pac to Mayweather, he could have easily just milked a belt and made boat loads of cash but instead dared to be great.

    I have absolutely no issues in sharing the fact that I've shed some tears in the days since Ricky's passing and his funeral today is a difficult moment to go through.

    You'll be remembered.

    Seen a lot of people within the game who were either friends with Hatton or had met him on numerous occasions and they all say he was a genuinely good guy who went out of his way to help them and always had time for everyone. They all sounded sincere too. This is all over the last few weeks prior to his funeral

    Truly saddened here coming from a Pacquiao fan

    I wanted to see all of Pacquiao’s opponents live until they were “old”.

    Never met the man but listening to him on tv he always seemed like a down to earth relatable fella. Gone too soon

    Yeah, there's a reason why he was so well liked and so few, if any at all, have a bad word to say about him
