"Aggressive. Relentless. Devastating. Ricky Hatton returns to prove it's not over yet."
Ricky Hatton's return to the boxing ring after over three years gone will be televised live in the United States by Showtime, the network that brought his fights to the States years ago, at 5:00 pm EST this Saturday from Manchester, England.
Hatton (45-2, 32 KO) will face former WBA welterweight titlist Vyacheslav Senchenko (32-1, 21 KO) from the sold-out Manchester Arena in Hatton's hometown. The atmosphere will be electric, and all that we can do now is find out if Ricky Hatton is truly back, or if this comeback was a bad idea.
BLH will have live round-by-round coverage of the show on Saturday, and we'll start with the Primetime broadcast from the UK, with a solid undercard featuring the Scott Quigg vs Rendall Munroe rematch, Gary Buckland vs Stephen Foster, Sergey Rabchenko vs Cedric Vitu, and Martin Murray vs Jorge Navarro.
Hatton vs Senchenko will be replayed at 8:00 pm EST on Showtime Extreme on Saturday, too, for those who can't catch the fight live in the afternoon.
