Ricky Hatton slams Vyacheslav Senchenko after the former WBA welterweight champion fails to show up for a press conference.

Ricky Hatton has criticised Vyacheslav Senchenko after his opponent failed to turn up to Thursday's press conference.

The Hitman faced reporters alone at the media event in Manchester, where he condemned the former WBA welterweight champion as "unprofessional".

He told Sky Sports News: "He had plenty of time to make it to the press conference, but I feel a lot more relaxed these days to be honest.

"I used to let so many things get on top of me and bother me, but now I'm not bothered. Ultimately it's down to what happens in the ring on the night.

"But it is pretty unprofessional because this is what he is contracted to do and I'm sure the press would have liked to have seen us stood next to each other."

The 34-year-old will step into the ring for the first time since 2009 when he takes on Senchenko at the MEN Arena on Saturday night.
