One of his former classmates, Jamie Pulford, recalled a touching story about Ricky:

“He even took the time to call my grandmother to surprise her, so she could say that Ricky Hatton called her. My mom always loved him for that.”

Manchester City player Phil Foden also paid his respects to Hatton by visiting his family. He gifted a match shirt and a bouquet of flowers, leaving a message:

“There is only one Ricky Hatton. Rest in peace, Phil.”
