Hatton said in a social media post that he plans to make the return in his hometown of Manchester in a bout against Marco Antonio Barrera of Mexico on July 2.
The British fighter retired in 2012 after an illustrious career that saw him win the IBF and WBA light-welterweight titles, as well as the WBA welterweight title.
Hatton ended his career with 45 wins and three losses.
