Ricky Hatton’s Former Trainer Billy Graham Backs Nephew Jack Following Apology Jack Hatton and his father, Matthew, brother of the late Ricky Hatton, have spoken publicly about the support and guidance they received from former trainer Billy Graham in the weeks following the tragic passing of the former world champion on September 14. Graham, who shared a special bond with Ricky Hatton during the peak of his career, had been estranged from the Hatton family for years. In the wake of the tragedy, he issued a heartfelt apology for their fallout, leaving an emotional message that has now become part of the family’s journey toward healing. Jack Hatton on Graham’s Support “Great to have my Uncle Richard’s former coach, Billy, coming to support me the last couple of weeks,” Jack said, as he continued his amateur boxing journey with another success. “I know Rick would have loved it. Also, giving me some advice after the fight.” His father, Matthew, added, “Great to see these two supporting Jack Hatton over the last couple of weeks. These two can see what I see. Billy Graham doesn’t waste his time on nonsense, simple as that, and I absolutely love Jane Couch.” The Loss of Ricky Hatton The tragic death of Ricky Hatton has sent shockwaves through British boxing. ‘The Hitman’ was laid to rest in October following weeks of attempts to make sense of how a British legend’s life ended. Adding to the grief, Hatton’s former trainer, Billy Graham, left a moving message alongside a floral tribute: “Sorry I wasn’t there for you,” he wrote. Graham had guided Hatton through the prime of his career, masterminding his rise to world championship glory and unforgettable nights in Las Vegas. Their relationship collapsed after a bitter split in 2008, and they had not spoken to each other in years. In a 2023 documentary, Graham admitted to regretting the estrangement and reflected on the years he spent away from Hatton’s life. Despite the remorse, the two never fully reconciled before Hatton’s passing, adding a poignant layer to the tribute. Remembering ‘The Hitman’ Ricky Hatton will forever be remembered as a national treasure who carried British boxing through the 2000s. Known for his relentless style in the ring, humility outside it, and devotion to family, his loss leaves an enormous void in the sport. Graham’s presence and advice for Jack symbolize a new chapter for the Hatton family, one that honors Ricky’s legacy while supporting the next generation of fighters. Fans and the boxing world alike will be watching closely as Jack Hatton navigates this period of mentorship and inspiration from his late uncle’s former trainer.

Mike Tyson urged Ricky Hatton to stop beating himself up — ‘not to hurt himself’ Mike Tyson shared heartfelt words with British boxing icon Ricky Hatton during a private meeting — a moment now resurfacing as a powerful testament to empathy and resilience in boxing. ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ supported Hatton many times, watching ringside at his fights, including in the UK. The pair enjoyed dinner together and held mutual respect. The Ricky Hatton Foundation, launched to support athletes facing mental health battles, recently shared the exchange, highlighting Tyson’s advice. Having been open about his own struggles with depression and self-destructive thoughts, Tyson urged Hatton to show compassion for himself. Mike Tyson’s Message Tyson’s words carry extra weight given his own public battles. Both champions, fan favorites who wore their hearts on their sleeves, connected through a shared understanding of the pressures of fame, legacy, and public scrutiny. That bond formed the basis of Tyson’s advice to Hatton. Hatton’s foundation shared the moment on Twitter, highlighting Tyson’s advice: “You’d be hurting the wrong person if you hurt yourself. You’re a good guy, a beautiful person. Stop beating yourself up,” Tyson told Hatton. When Ricky met Mike Tyson: ‘You’d be hurting the wrong person if you hurt yourself. You’re a good guy, a beautiful person. Stop beating yourself up.’ – Mike Tyson 🥊 A reminder that strength starts with self-compassion 💙#MentalHealthMatters #miketyson #RickyHattonFoundation pic.twitter.com/NXKIuNJYgy — Ricky Hatton Foundation (@HattonFDN) October 27, 2025 Micky Ward: ‘There’s No Way He Was a Failure’ Tyson’s message of self-compassion resonates beyond the ring, a sentiment echoed by Micky Ward when reflecting on Hatton’s career and character. World Boxing News spoke with Ward about Hatton following his 2024 induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. Ward recalled Hatton once describing himself as a failure in a Sky documentary — a sentiment he strongly rejects. “There’s no way he was a failure. He was awesome,” Ward told WBN. “I knew Ricky from the Hall of Fame and stuff, and he was always full of life. He was such a good guy.” Ward’s words echo Tyson’s message: Hatton’s worth and contribution to boxing extend far beyond wins, losses, or self-doubt. Boxing’s Human Side The sport continues to grapple with the toll mental health challenges take on its most beloved figures. Legends like Tyson, Hatton, and Ward help pull back the curtain on the emotional pressures fighters face once the spotlight fades. Through their honesty and advocacy, boxing’s legends remind us that even the greatest champions are human. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, please seek help.

The Micky Ward interview is the latest in a long line of praise for Hatton’s character. Ricky Hatton Tribute “Ricky Hatton was a tremendous fighter, tough as they come, and outside of boxing, he was such a good person,” Ward told World Boxing News. “He was what every fighter should be. He was respectful, a nice guy, who would go and have a beer with you after, and who would shoot darts with you after. He was just a super down-to-earth guy and a great champion fighter.” The Hitman’s Legacy Hatton, a former two-division champion and one of Britain’s most popular fighters, compiled a 45-3 record during his career, including iconic victories over Kostya Tszyu, Jose Luis Castillo, and Paulie Malignaggi. Ward emphasized that Hatton’s persona outside the ring mirrored the same respect and generosity he showed inside it, making him a true fan favourite and a role model for younger fighters. On Hatton describing himself as a failure in the recent Sky Documentary Hatton, available now on Sky On Demand, Ward was emphatic: “There’s no way he was a failure. He was awesome. I knew Ricky from the Hall of Fame and stuff, and he was always full of life.
