Hamish Catto, a Bridgewater local, was born into the demanding life of sheep farming, which honed his toughness and capability from the outset. In search of more challenging work, Hamish began labouring as a driller, pushing his physical strength even further.
Hamish began boxing only three years ago, training under Lucas in a backyard setup. After 8β12 weeks he entered a novice boxing competition which resulted in his first win.
Since then Hamish has become an active and successful welterweight boxer, including winning the 2023 VABL Super Welterweight regional title by round-three KO.
