British boxer Ricky Hatton had a few choice words for Manchester United star Ronaldo, calling him a "fairy. Hatton, a fan of crosstown rivals Manchester City, slammed FIFA's World Footballer of the Year during a recent comedy performance.

Hatton said: “If there’s one thing I hate more than Manchester United, it’s Cristiano Ronaldo.

“What an absolute fairy he is. He’s on his a**e more times than his feet.

“United were on TV the other night while I was doing the hoovering. I accidentally brushed the set with the hoover and Ronaldo fell over in the box!

Hatton made the comments during a comedy performance at a Cambridge theater. He also took a few shots at boxer Junior Witter, who is angling to fight Hatton.

He said: “What an absolute d**khead. He keeps saying, ‘I’ll knock Ricky out, I’ll do this to him and I’ll do that’.

“But he can’t give tickets away. Every time he fights there is no one there.

Instead of Witter, some UK sports fans would rather see Hatton take on Ronaldo. More than 13,000 people have joined the Facebook group Campaign To Get Ricky 'The Hitman' Hatton To Fight Cristiano Ronaldo.

Hatton will likely be much kinder to Brazilian footballer Kaka, who appears close to signing a mammoth $145 million deal with Manchester City.
