Ricky Hatton was stripped of his boxer’s license Thursday after he was found guilty of misconduct by the British Boxing Board of Control after the whole cocaine scandal.
The 31-year-old Hatton was fined $31,000. Hatton was able to keep his license to promote boxing events after videos of Hatton allegedly using cocaine appeared in a British tabloid. Police have said they will be speaking to Hatton after he has completed his rehabilitation.
The Hitman, who has not fought since losing to Manny Pacquiao in May 2009, has been diagnosed with depression and a drinking problem. Hatton said recently that he’s had difficulty coping with retirement from boxing.
