British lightweight prospect (up to 61.2 kg) Campbell Hatton (7-0, 2 KOs), the son of local national champion Ricky Hatton, recalled how once, as a teenager, he sparred with his father. It didn’t end well for Hatton Small.
“I remember I threw a punch, and his muscle memory worked: he went to the side, and then I flew a powerful left hook to the body. In general, I fell, rolled on the canvas, trying to breathe. And then I hear him from above like: “That’s shit, don’t just tell mom,” Campbell giggled in the comment
VIPBoxingPromotions.
Now, Ricky’s offspring added, “that would pass for child abuse,” and laughed.
Now he is back working with his father, who is preparing to make a mini-comeback: to fight in a fair fight with the legend Marco Antono Barrera from Mexico. Hatton son says – oh, we will soon have sparring again, “maybe I will repay him.”
Hatton’s son almost goofed up – insured the judge
In fact, Campbell hopes that the way his father brought himself into shape will be the beginning of a new lifestyle for Ricky, a lover of drinking beer and threesomes.
Hatton, 43, announced his retirement shortly after losing a second-round knockout to Manny Pacquiao in May 2009. In November 2012, Ricky again entered the ring, but he did not make a triumphant return – in the 9th round he was knocked out by Vyacheslav Senchenko. This time the Briton hung up his gloves for good.
On August 6, Campbell, who is in his third year as a pro, will continue the bag diet: in Sheffield, he will face a certain 39-year-old Czech
Michal Dufek (34-23-2, 22 KOs). Jorniman, apparently, trochs with a punch.
Look at the photo of an incredibly shrinking Hatton, who at the same time showed a new girlfriend in a tavern. A year ago, Ricky showed his “hut” and a bright supercar – video.
