Team GB bantamweight Luke Campbell admits that he was nervous prior to his 11-9 win over Vittorio Parrinello at ExCel.

Team GB bantamweight Luke Campbell has admitted that he was nervous ahead of his win over Vittorio Parrinello earlier this evening.

The Hull-born 24-year-old overcame his Italian opponent 11-9 on points in front of 10,000 spectators at ExCel.

Campbell said: "It's the biggest event on the planet and my first fight in front of the kind of crowd that would make anyone nervous. It was just about keeping calm and now I've got the first one out of the way I'll get better.

"I always tell myself that I won't put pressure on myself and I'll enjoy the occasion, but you can't get away from the pressure - it's there. But I've never worked harder in my life than I have to get to this tournament."

Campbell will now face Detelin Dalakliev for a guaranteed medal on Sunday.
