Hatton out to prove he’s not ‘past it’

A REJUVENATED Ricky Hatton is aiming to put the record straight against Paulie Malignaggi tonight after admitting he looked like he was “past it” in his last fight.

Hatton, 30, will climb into the ring at the MGM Grand Garden Arena looking to prove he is still the best fighter in the world at junior welterweight following an unimpressive victory over Juan Lazcano at the City of Manchester Stadium in May.

The Englishman had been looking to bounce back from the first professional defeat of his career last December when he was stopped in the 10th round by Floyd Mayweather Jr.
