Watch Campbell Hatton score sensational first-round TKO on Joshua vs Franklin card with brutal body shot like dad Ricky
CAMPBELL HATTON returned to the ring in spectacular fashion courtesy of a body shot his old man would’ve been proud of.
Hatton – the son of British boxing legend Ricky – returned to action on the undercard of Anthony Joshua’s comeback fight against Jermaine Franklin at The O2 Arena on Saturday night.
Standing between Hatton and a perfect 11-0 record was fellow Brit Louis Fielding.
But the Tamworth tussler was no match for the heavy-handed Hatton – who bagged a scintillating first-round stoppage courtesy of a nasty body shot.
Campbell dug a beautiful left hook to the body of Fielding after pinging his head off with slick jabs.
Fielding contemplated returning to his feet but decided midway through the count that the pain was too much.
Fight fans were quick to comment Hatton’s latest destructive outing, with one saying: “Campbell Hatton – sensational.”
Another said: “What a body shot from Hatton.”
And another said: “Like father like son.”
One remarked: “CAMPBELL HATTON WAS DESTRUCTIVE. SHADES OF HIS DAD… but better.

Another chimed in: “Some body shot from Campbell Hatton.”
An elated Campbell said in his post-fight interview: “I took my time and picked my shot.
“It was a split-second shot but a delayed reaction from him.
“It would have been nice to show a bit more because in previous fights I have rushed my work and not replicated what I do in the gym.
“In sparring I show lots of things over lots of rounds but I will happily take one-round wins all the time.”
Campbell, 22, began sparring with dad and trainer Ricky at the tender age of 14.
And he ended up feeling the full force of his old man’s hellacious body shots.
Campbell recently recalled: “I threw a shot.
“Muscle memory – he has pulled out the way and then come flying in, big left hook to the body.
“I hit the deck and I’m rolling, trying to breathe. I hear him over me, ‘S***, don’t tell your mum.'”
