RIP John Campbell BBBOC(NI)..A true gentleman and great servant to boxing and the BBBOC.Always enjoyed our wee catch ups when in Belfast and our conversations about how we could make professional boxing happen in Derry.Sorely missed by all the boxing community in Derry and beyond.Sleep tight John,prayers said 🙏

"We're a close team, we're a bit of a family, and as hard as it is, it's real fun. And people liked me because of my style but I think they also liked Ricky Hatton for Ricky Hatton the person. I wasn't full of bu****it, I didn't sing me own praises, I never slagged off opponents.

"I always had a joke, a smile here and there. As well as entertaining people in the ring, I entertained them with what came out of my f***ing mouth, didn't I? And I think Brett is very, very similar.

"When he first come over, I think he was a little bit of the shy type but bit by bit, he's coming out of his shell more and I think, certainly, down the line, they (the fans) will like that.

"The easiest thing when you get a big crowd, a big following, is for it to go to your head; for you to get a bit giddy, a bit caught up in the bravado and the drama of it.

"But I think Brett's got a sensible head on his shoulders. And to be honest with you, if I thought he was getting a little bit above his station or a little bit too cocky, he'd get pulled up by me in that department as well."
