Campbell Hatton, 19, has signed with Matchroom Boxing. The son of a former two-weight world champion is set to make his professional debut in early 2021.

The young athlete will start his career in professional boxing at featherweight. His coach will be Matthew Hatton, a former world title contender, and Ricky's father will act as his manager.

“Signing a contract with Eddie Hearn and the Matchroom team is a dream come true for me. I couldn't make a better choice. My goal is to be active and learn in every fight,” Campbell Hatton said.
