The Paul Huggins Life Story

Paul Huggins was born and raised in Hastings on England’s south coast. A troubled childhood led him into serious trouble with the law, but boxing became his escape and ultimately changed the direction of his life. By the age of 14, Paul had become the British Schoolboys Champion, and at 19 he turned professional. He rose to become the UK’s number one ranked boxer after defeating European champion Vincenzo Limatola in 1987, and fought notable names including world champion Barry McGuigan. After boxing, Paul became involved in drug smuggling and violent criminal activity, eventually facing prison and possible long-term sentencing on firearms charges. During this darkest chapter of his life, he cried out to Jesus for help. While serving time in HM Prison Wormwood Scrubs, reading the Gospel of John radically transformed him from what he describes as a “violent, ruthless criminal” into a man filled with faith and peace.
