Ricky Hatton return rumours rejected

Ricky Hatton's agent has dismissed speculation that the Stockport-born boxer is preparing to return to the ring.

Reports had claimed that the 33-year-old was planning a two-fight comeback, starting with Paul Malignaggi in November.

However, representative Paul Speak has insisted that there is "no story".

"People are speculating but he is just keeping fit and has not made any decision on a comeback. There's no story," Speak told Sky Sports News.

'The Hitman' has not competed since July 2011.
