During a meticulous search, officers uncovered a secret room hidden behind a sliding panel in the hallway. When they entered, they were stunned to find the space filled with dozens of training tools and boxing equipment — gloves, punching bags, speed balls, old jump ropes, and even a worn-down sparring dummy that looked like it had been used until the very end.
Investigators described the room as “a private shrine” to Hatton’s boxing career. Dust-covered photos of his championship nights were still pinned to the wall, alongside handwritten training notes and schedules.
Family members say Hatton often spent hours alone in that room, even after retiring from professional boxing, as if reliving his glory days. The discovery has added a heartbreaking layer to the tragedy — suggesting he never really left the ring behind.
Fans online are now calling it “The Last Gym,” a reminder of how deeply boxing was tied to Hatton’s identity.
