Before the main action, Ricky Hatton prodigy Campbell Hatton fought more like his uncle Matthew as the Hyde super-lightweight remained undefeated.
Hatton won 78-74 after showing cleaner work against Tom Ansell. According to CompuBox, Hatton should have taken a clean sweep.
“Campbell won every statistical category tracked by CompuBox. He was the busier, more accurate fighter, especially in the power punch category.
“Hatton threw 102 more power punches and landed 60 more.”
Ricky Hatton’s son fights like Matthew
Training under the tutelage of Matthew, the former European welterweight champion, Hatton can now boast a record of 13-0.
British and Commonwealth titles should be in the immediate future, with no further time wasted for the son of a legend.
Middleweight George Liddard continued to climb the ladder as a professional as “The Billericay Bomber” notched another W.
Six rounds of action concluded 59-55 in favor of Liddard over Dutchman Bas Oosterweghel.
Brandon Scott coasted past Louis Norman to push his record to 6-0 at featherweight. Like Courtney, Scott had too much in his locker and scored a six-round shut-out.
In the opener, Maiseyrose Courtney is now 4-0 and on course for female honors. The Eltham star carded a one-sided 60-54 decision over Gemma Ruegg to stay perfect.
Johnny Fisher
In the first of four heavyweight bouts, Englishman Johnny Fisher, known as “The Romford Bull,” powered his way to the Southern Area title.
In the opening seconds, after an early onslaught, Fisher almost got Harry Armstrong out of there. However, Fisher bided his time and settled for ending the argument in seven.
An overhand right did the damage, almost taking Armstrong out, cutting his eye, and forcing him to take a standing eight. Fisher followed up his excellent shot with more devastation leading to the end.
CompuBox broke down the stats.
After a wild opening minute that saw Fisher knock down Armstrong, the fight seemed to settle into a pattern where Fisher was landing hard punches while Armstrong was absorbing punches as he attempted to maneuver Fishing into the ropes.
Though Armstrong landed thudding shots occasionally, he could not match Fisher’s accuracy. Fisher landed 48% of his total punches and 54% of his power punches.
Another power punch flurry by Fisher put Armstrong down again, and though he beat the referee’s count, Fisher would not let up, forcing Armstrong’s corner to throw in the towel.
