If there was such a thing as re-incarnation, Floyd would come back as himself

I've been giving a little gamble on the roulette and just sitting having a coffee with the fans, chatting away.

Winning the IBF title was the greatest night of my life. To give it up outside the ring is truly painful.

I'm going to say hello to two friends who I've shut out of my life for the past 10 weeks while I trained the hardest I've ever done for a fight. So welcome back Mr Guinness and Mr Dom Perignon.

I've got a problem with my legs, they just can't walk past a chippy.

He's won't push me back on the night and he certainly wasn't going to push me back up there.

I have no fear in moving up (in weight) and fighting.

What sort of champion would I be if I just stayed in my normal weight division and didn't take the big challenges on? Bring them on, that's what Ricky Hatton's all about.

My first world title gave me the confidence to go and do bigger and better things.

As an amateur, I couldn't get many fights. No one would fight me when I was a schoolboy.

The one thing that's hurt in my career is people saying I don't want to come out of Manchester to fight people.

Nobody roots for Goliath.

The best time to go to Disney World, if you want to avoid huge crowds, is 1962.

If the body can respond so decisively to music, it must in some sense be music.

I was this weird loner kid who got drunk by himself all the time.

We've had parallel lives. And frankly, I prefer mine to his. I would not like to be George Bush.

They are all gone into the world of light, and I alone sit lingering here.

As a rule, indeed, grown-up people are fairly correct on matters of fact; it is in the higher gift of imagination that they are so sadly to seek.

I don't think you get perfect couples. At best you get two people building something, and working at it, and loving each other, and doing their best to communicate.

Even the slowest guy can go from first to third and help win a ballgame.

To change our laws and culture, the green movement must attract and include the majority of all people, not just the majority of affluent people.
