Loved the zero improvement brought in by Boxercise Ben. Keep on boxercising, Ben. Stealing a living. Nash out - His Excellency

Probably true. And young Edward should listen to his own advice too and do a runner

He didn't look good at all.

I think that there's plenty of room in boxing for a guy that puts on entertaining fights like Campbell Hatton. Barring some miracle he won't ever get to the top of the sport , but as long as he trains hard , stays in shape, and fights like he did I'd watch him. It was a good fight. It wasn't good for his health ,and going forward it's not likely to change , so that's something for him to consider.

Originally opposed to Cambell being given the route through as my own son is a pro . undefeated just starting out and would have too much for Cambell BUT I have got to say I've changed my mind about this kid.In my opinion it's clear to see his lack of a proper apprenticeship but he's still young and has many other variables , balls , heart and guts , if he can improve his boxing brain , I think he could possibly shoot at a decent level. Good luck kid I for one was pretty impressed .

What the he’ll did he do? I watched a couple of rounds and he had the other guy on the ropes and was actually winning the seconds I watched, did he fade?

When you should never have been anywhere near a ring but you grew up on the estate because your world champion millionaire dad kept it real plus really didn't know anything else but boxing.

Hang 'em up with your head held high, we don't want to see our hero's kid get hit any more.

For what it's worth I thought he did the better work and should have got the decision, but he was fighting a hand-picked guy with 4 KOs.

Need to send the kid to a gym in the USA or Mexico where no one knows or cares who he or his dad is.

It doesn't matter if he's not a future world champion. There's nothing wrong with being a domestic level fighter. What matters is if people want to watch you fight.

The kid's still young. Got loads of time to improve and has access to the best training money can buy. He should take a step back, work on his basics and be active. He can start looking at domestic titles again in a year or two.
