Former world champion Ricky Hatton signs up for the new series of charity show 'Let's Dance for Comic Relief'.

Former world champion Ricky Hatton will swap his boxing gloves for dancing shoes next month after agreeing to take part in the BBC charity series 'Let's Dance for Comic Relief'.

Hatton will compete against comedians, actors and celebrities in the show that raises money and awareness for Red Nose Day, which takes place this year on Friday, March 15.

The 34-year-old will have to dance to a piece of music of his choosing and impersonate a famous routine from a past film or television show.

Hatton retired from professional boxing for the second time last November after being stopped by Vyacheslav Senchenko in his comeback fight at the MEN Arena.
