Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton took on Manny Pacquiao this weekend in Vegas -- but the only thing Hatton could knock down was a pint of Guinness.

After his devastating second round knockout loss to Pacquaio, Hatton nursed his injuries at Wet Republic -- with as much beer as he could possibly get his hands on. Brilliant!

Manny Pacquiao made Ricky "The Hit Man" Hatton go to sleep last night with a sick second round knockout punch to the chin -- which means pay-per-viewers shelled out roughly 30 bucks a round to watch Hatton quickly get flattened.

Ricky was out cold on the mat for few minutes after the devastating punch -- and after the fight, his trainer told the media it would probably be a good idea for him to retire.
Ouch.
