Ricky Hatton.
Ricky ?The Hitman? Hatton who suffered a brutal 2nd round knockout at the hands of ?Fighter of the Decade? Manny Pacquiao in May 2, 2009 will make his comeback against former WBA welterweight champion Vyacheslav Senchenko at the Manchester Arena in England on November 24.
Senchenko who is from the Ukraine has a record of 32-1 with 21 knockouts. His only loss was a 9th round TKO suffered at the hands of American Paulie Malignaggi in the Ukraine last April 29.
The 35 year old Senchenko won the WBA 147 pound title with a twelve round unanimous decision over undefeated Yuriy Nuzhnenko on April 10, 2009 and successfully defense his title three times before losing to Malignaggi.
Hatton who celebrates his 34th birthday next week has said ?I cant wait to get into the ring now and I?m sure Senchenko will give me a good fight.?
He won the IBO light welterweight title with an 11th round TKO over Malignaggi on November 22, 2008 before he lost the title to Pacquiao.
The Briton who hasn?t fought since his crushing loss to Pacquiao has a record of 45-2 with 32 knockouts. His only other defeat being a 10th round TKO to undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr on December 8,2007.
