William Hutchinson born August 4th, 1998 is a 6'1 Super Middleweight with a 13-0 9 KO's record. Born in and fighting out of Carstairs, Scotland, United Kingdom. Hutchinson is probably one of Scotland's finest amateurs, he won gold medals at both the 2014 European Junior Championships and the 2016 Youth World Championships. He then went on to be the first Scot to take home gold at an amateur World Championships. When he turned pro in 2017, he signed with David Haye, but after a year he switched over to Warren's Queensberry Promotions. Since then he's been slowly built up on undercards, taking on no hopers, now granted, he's yet to have a truly marquee win on his record, but h did manage to take out Jose Miguel Fandino in 1, fresh off of his loss to Maravilla Martinez. So I'm not making this thread based on his actual accomplishments, but off of the potential I see in him. While his style is incredibly awkward and at times ungainly, it's quite effective, and hard to prepare for adequately. He's rangy as hell, has solid head movement and defense, is quite heavy handed has fast hands and fast feet, can bounce in and out of range with the greatest of ease, and when he starts letting his combinations fly, his punches start coming in at all kinds of crazy angles, and his opponents get discombobulated and have no idea how to prepare for it. So while I'm not entirely convinced he can be next level, I definitely see quite a bit of potential there. So at the very least, give some consideration to hopping aboard The Hutch Train as it flies by.

He's a talent and if he can take a hefty pop on the whiskers, and there's absolutely no reason why he shouldn't be able to given the UK's long history of being the most fertile breeding ground for producing iron-jawed SMWs (Super Joe, Eubank, Froch, Henry Wharton, Benn, Degale, Clinton Woods, Michael Watson, Robin Reid, BJS 2.0, Martin Murray, Juan Ryder, Groves, Glenn Catley, Bomber Graham, Callum Smith, Dean Francis, David Starie, Cornelius Carr, CEJ etc. the list is literally endless), he has the potential to win a world title. All that time he's spent sparring BJS 2.0, Liam ''The Machine'' Williams and The Special One will obviously stand him in good stead too because you won't find better sparring than that anywhere in the world. Give him 12 months and he'll be ready for them to feed Plant and Berlanga to him.
Been dissapointed in his career so far. Remember seeing him and Joyce at York hall almost 3 years ago. He is obviously still very young but he has barely stepped up in opposition in those years until arguably last month.
Well, we're definitely going to see if he's the real deal next month, he's fighting on the Arthur-Yarde undercard taking on Lennox Clarke, who is no pushover.
