Ricky Hatton tells unbelievable story about 'd**khead' Floyd Mayweather

Ricky Hatton shares a story about his flight from hell with Floyd Mayweather.

When Ricky Hatton met Floyd Mayweather in 2007, fans were treated to a typical Mayweather performance. The pound-for-pound great systematically picked apart the ever aggressive "Hitman" before scoring a technical knockout in the 10th round. While Floyd Mayweather's fighting career reached its pinnacle this May when he fought Manny Pacquiao in a multi-record breaking fight, Ricky Hatton drifted somewhat into anonymity since his retirement in 2012, until recently when he released a memoir chronicling his fighting career.

In Hatton's new book, the Mancunian blasts Floyd Mayweather for his egotistical antics on a flight to New York during the press tour for their fight.
