Hatton was the second boxing hero to roll back the years after Mike Tyson, 53, showed off his skills on social media this week.
The boxing icon has revealed his ambitions to return to the ring to compete in charity fights, and has recently been training to get into shape ahead of a potential comeback.
And after Tyson wowed fans by engaging in a ferocious sparring session in a Youtube video, Melbourne boxing promoter Brian Amatruda immediately got on the phone to arrange a charity bout for the former world heavyweight champion against former New Zealand rugby union star Sonny Bill Williams.
