Professional career

Under the tutelage of renowned Cuban trainer, Ismael Salas, and being guided by David Haye's RingStar Promotions with Shelly Finkel as manager, Hutchinson made his professional debut on 20 October 2017, scoring a first-round technical knockout (TKO) victory against Attila Nagy at the indigo at The O2 in London.

He scored another TKO victory in December—defeating Cyrille Joly in the second round—followed by a six-round points decision (PTS) victory against Eric Mokonzo in February 2018. After his win over Mokonzo, Hutchinson switched trainers from Salas to Dominic Ingle.

In the following May it was announced that Hutchinson had also switched promoters, signing with Frank Warren's Queensberry Promotions.
