Ricky Hatton’s son Campbell Hatton makes an impressive debut; beats Jesus Ruiz

The Hattons must be really proud!!

Legendary UK boxer Ricky Hatton’s son Campbell Hatton made an impressive debut against Jesus Ruiz in front of an audience of 500. Fighting in the undercard of Alexander Povetkin vs Dillian Whyte 2 at Gibraltar, 20-year old Campbell Hatton did his father proud as he beat the Mexican, Ruiz, via unanimous decision in a 4-round encounter.

Speaking at the post-fight interview, Campbell was filled with ‘nervous energy’ despite emerging the victor. He revealed that he could have done a lot better than that, but ‘nerves’ got the better of him. He also exclaimed that he has already got the ‘Hatton’ trait in his blood, up and running.
