Ricky Hatton hopes to be released from hospital in the next 24 hours as he continues to make a recovery from chest and stomach pains.
‘The Hitman’, 30, was admitted to the Tameside Hospital, Ashton-under-Lyne before being moved to the private Alexandra Hospital on the outskirts of Manchester.
His agent Paul Speak said: ‘He is still waiting for the results, but he could be allowed home on Friday.
‘Ricky isn’t the best patient and is desperate to get out, but it’s a case of waiting for the tests to come back.’
Hatton first complained of feeling sick last Friday after going out for dinner with friends while on a speaking tour in Ireland.
