Ricky Hatton to UFC (photo wikipedia)

Ricky Hatton is a great professional boxing champion and is being courted by   Randy Couture to try his hand at MMA. 

"I am a big fan of Ricky Hatton,” Couture told the Manchester Evening News. “He is a fantastic fighter. I could get him up to speed on the ground wrestling part of it, while he could take advantage of his boxing talent. He could make a big difference in the lighter categories.”

Couture believes that Hatton could go great in the UFC, if he, 

“learns the ways of the UFC, He is a tremendous fighter and has a lot of heart. There is no doubt he could make a tremendous impact with his heart and determination in the ring,” Couture said.

Hatton has expressed an interest and says,

"It is all action, proper fighting. [The UFC] are going the right away about it to get people interested. There is a concern in boxing that UFC is taking its place. People seem to get more value for money,” Hatton stated. “UFC would be right up my street, I used to kick box so maybe I would be all right."
