Promoter Frank Warren has urged Ricky Hatton to think twice about his impending comeback.
Former world champion Hatton is currently taking the steps to regain a boxing licence after retiring in 2009.
"I'd prefer Ricky not to box. He's not going to get any better at the age of 33, but it's his decision," said Warren.
"He's returned to the gym and that has given him focus and direction, but I'd rather he stay there training and not fight.
"I hope he's still got it, but it won't be there... it just doesn't happen like that. He's had a lot of problems outside the ring for a long, long time and it just won't happen."
Hatton won 45 of his 47 professional bouts, with 32 of those victories coming via knockout.
