The motion

That this House is deeply saddened by the passing of Ricky Hatton MBE, world champion boxer and one of Britain’s most iconic sporting figures; pays tribute to his extraordinary career in which he won multiple world titles and inspired millions with his fearless fighting style, resilience, and dedication to his craft; recognises his role in bringing communities together through sport, his tireless commitment to promoting boxing at the grassroots level, and his support for young athletes; celebrates the pride he brought to Manchester, to the North West, and to the nation as a whole; acknowledges the warmth, humour and generosity that made him as loved outside the ring as he was respected inside it; and extends deepest condolences to his family, friends, fans, and all who were inspired by the remarkable life and career of the people's champion.
