Four fighters from Millthorpe Gym travelled to the central coast on Friday to compete in the Coastal Clash IV held at Doyalson RSL on Saturday night.

The gym’s entire members and their families also travelled up to support the fighters as three were competing for titles and one was having a first fight.

Brad Abbot and Makk McNaught were contesting State titles and Jono McCann was contesting an Australian title.

Paris McNaught who is 12 years old was having her first contest against a 15 year old girl from the host club.

Makk has been competing for eight months in the lead up to this title fighting against men in their 20’s and at weight six kilograms heavier to prepare himself.

His trainer from Millthorpe Gym, Glen McDonald, could not have been more proud of Makk than that moment when the judges, after a long deliberation announced that the Blue corner - Makk - had won.

Makk was supported in his corner by his brother Beau, trainer Glen, support crew Anthony, Josh and founder of the club Kevin Blundell.

The fight was definitely a crowd pleaser and the best of the night with constant chanting and cheering for both fighters.

Makk was thankful for the victory after all his hard work and that of his trainer Glen and he was extremely proud of his sister and her effort.

Makk was proudly supported by our local Lions club Cudal - Cargo.
