A six-strong gang of car thieves got rather more than they bargained for when they tried to steal an expensive Range Rover from two brothers in the UK city of Birmingham late one night. The owner of the car just happened to be a famous boxer and when one of the thieves slapped him, the boxer punched his assailant back and knocked him out cold. The boxer and his brother, also a successful boxer, then fought back the rest of the would-be carjackers.
A six-strong gang of car thieves got rather more than they bargained for when they tried to steal an expensive Range Rover from two brothers in the UK city of Birmingham late one night. The owner of the car just happened to be a famous boxer and when one of the thieves slapped him, the boxer punched his assailant back and knocked him out cold. The boxer and his brother, also a successful boxer, then fought back the rest of the would-be carjackers. Witnesses described seeing the two boxers felling the other five men one by one. Neither of the brothers felt the need to call the police for assistance at the time although they did report the incident later. Nor did any of the battered assailants feel the need to come forward to confess their guilt to the police. One man claiming to be one of the attackers later took to the internet to post a video clip with his version of the incident, though as his face was masked there was no way of identifying him or verifying his rant.
