London, June 3 : David Beckham is not only willing to give some advice about sports, but as it turns out, he's also willing to do the same when it comes to tattoos, helping boxing ace Ricky Hatton come up with his body art.

Becks helped Hatton come up with the lion motif that now adorns his right shoulder, reports the Mirror.

And, he has also referred Hatton to his pal and trusted tattooist Louis Molloy

"Ricky was smitten with Becks' tattoos when the footballer came into his dressing room to wish him luck before his clash with Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas," a source told the paper.

"They later spoke and mulled over ideas for what Ricky could get done and Becks pointed Ricky in the direction of Louis.

"Ricky is thrilled with the end result and is visiting Louis in his studio next month to get his other tattoos altered."
