Ricky Hatton Says Retirement Depression Drove Him to Cocaine

Hey, remember last week when the News of the World went all public with video of Ricky Hatton ripping lines?

Yeah, Ricky Hatton does too. And he's talking about how he got all cokey because he's depressed about retiring.

"I have been binge drinking heavily and dabbling in other daft and silly things," Hatton said. "I am currently in the Priory (clinic) dealing with depression due to the fact I have not been able to cope with my retirement from boxing."
