Huggett Wins Mudgee Heavyweight Clash at Criterion
Forbes boxer Tom Huggett defeated Mudgee’s John Nellson in a rough eighteen to nineteen round title bout at the Criterion. Huggett pressed the attack with quick footwork and powerful blows, keeping Nellson largely on the defensive while crowd expectations of a knockout faded into a protracted duel. Nellson offered little in return as Huggett dominated, leaving Nellson exhausted and the towel finally waved amid a roaring, muddy ring.
