Campbell Hatton fails to impress boxing fans

Although Campbell Hatton is only 22 and just had his 10th victory in professional boxing, some fans feel he has a long way to travel in terms of possessing praiseworthy boxing skills. While some congratulated him, others stated that he would not be where he is had it not been for his father Ricky. Here is what they are saying.

According to @Alex7134689, Campbell Hatton is still at the “domestic level” when it comes to boxing. “If he wasn’t Ricky Hatton son, he’d fighting in empty leisure centers,” they added by saying.

Meanwhile, @FRG believes Hatton will lose if he went up against an “ok puncher” in the ring.

However, @Erjonshabani3 congratulated him.

According to @mcrowlands, Campbell, who was dropped by his own father, would be lucky to even win a regional British title in boxing.

Finally, @Mixatli made a sarcastic comment on the post.

It is safe to say that Hatton will hopefully keep improving. With that said, fans will need to wait to see how he develops himself in boxing.
