What a great show for him to make his prp debut on. Who is training Aadam?

It will be interesting to see if he fights the same way as his father.

Has he fought in the amateurs? Cannot see any evidence of him doing so.

I think his dad said he'd been training for 5 years or so but not fought in the ams, I could be wrong though

The clip I seen - year or so back so may have improved - he looked a raw novice (with attitude)

regardless his first instinct was to jump out.

So co-main on the PPV is someone who’s never even had an amateur fight let alone a pro fight.

I get having Hamed on the show but don’t make the lad co-main!

Next they’ll be having people make their debut in the main event against a world champ! Oh…hang on….

He was supposed to have been a big star in tennis originally .. that didn't work out obviously.

Naz is a very proud father no doubt, and used his influence to get his son a step up. Could come crashing down spectacularly .. as bad as Hattons boy is, he at least had been in and around the gym forever plus had some novice amateur fights.
It seems Naz son had sights set on Wimbledon and tennis .. some very very careful matchmaking required I'd imagine.

Campbell Hatton had a decent amateur career. 'Novice' level isn't an insult. It means they qualify for the under 10 and under 20 bouts championships. Bellew won the novices, as did many other top names.

Watching him on the pads with Spencer McCracken, he looked decent (I'm aware pads don't hit back).

It wasn't meant as an insult. Novices merely means what it says.

Merely to compare to another son of a former world champion giving boxing a go.
