In a heartbreaking turn of events, the last known photo of British boxing legend Ricky Hatton, taken just hours before his sudden passing, has emerged online – and it has left fans around the world shaken.
The picture shows Hatton smiling warmly while holding his young niece close. But one eerie detail has gone viral: his right hand is seen gripping the child’s shirt tightly, almost as if he didn’t want to let go. Social media users have flooded the comments, calling it a “haunting sign” that he somehow knew he was nearing the end.
“Look at the hand – it’s like he was saying goodbye without words,” one fan wrote.
Family sources say Hatton was in good spirits that day, laughing and playing with the children before retreating to his room. Just hours later, he was reportedly found unresponsive.
The photo has since been shared thousands of times, with many calling it “the most powerful image of his life.” For those who grew up watching Hatton fight, the image now carries a deeper meaning – a reminder to hold loved ones close while there’s still time.
