Ricky Hatton busking in the streets of Chester with wacky street band

The name of the picture



RICKY HATTON has gone from getting his world title belts out to belting out Oasis hits - as he busks in the streets.


The boxing legend joined a wacky band in Chester to holler Don't Look Back In Anger.

Ricky Hatton loves being in the middle again - but this time singing rather than fighting

But from the way he was screeching it out he is unlikely to go from from the Hitman to the Hits man any time soon.


Hatton, 39, finally quit fighting in 2012 after an unhappy comeback attempt against Vyacheslav Senchenko.



Now the former two-weight king is focused on promoting. Boxers only, it is to be hoped - not his singing'


Hatton is a Manchester City fan, just like former Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher.

But that is where the similarity between the two ends.


Hatton, one of Britain's most popular fighters of the modern era, was backed enthusiastically by the rest of his impromptu band.



Having taken a Britpop in the ring at all-time greats Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, a streetside in Cheshire surely held no fears for Hatton.



And he clearly enjoyed himself as he showed no inhibitions - albeit also little talent.


Last month he was filmed trying to ride a mechanical bull while "drunk" in a Manchester nightclub


But he is better off Standing on the Shoulder of Giants - like 6ft 8 3⁄4ins heavyweight Tyson Fury, whose return to the ring Hatton is helping.
