Manchester’s hard-hitting Ricky Hatton went up against the unbeaten and pound-for-pound considered the world’s best fighter Floyd Mayweather Jr. in the World Boxing Council welterweight battle Sturday night. The spectacle was watched by many celebrities including the likes of Denzel Washington, Wesley Snipes, Kid Rock, Sylvester Stallone, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Jude Law. The British boxer lost the fight after being knocked out in the 10th round by fabulous Floyd but he was given a hero’s welcome when he returned to his dressing room.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were among the stars on hand to console Hatton after his crushing defeat.
A camp insider says, “Angelina and Brad made a point of visiting Ricky after the fight to see that he was OK and to say well done.

“He crashed down right in front of them and Angelina grimaced. It was the first time she had ever seen boxing up close and she was worried that Ricky had been seriously hurt.
“Brad went with her to his dressing room later and they congratulated him on putting up such a fight. She seemed genuinely affected by what she’d seen and told Ricky he’d been very brave.”

Meanwhile Floyd Mayweather Jr. didn’t need any consoling as he immediately headed out to party all night at club JET looking no worse for wear.
