In 2009, a 24-year-old knife-wielding burglar attempted to break into a 72-year-old pensioner's home in Oxford, England, but was left battered, bruised and pinned to the ground. Turned out the pensioner, Frank Corti, was a former boxing champion.
When Frank Corti spotted the aforementioned intruder, Gregory McCalium, in his hallway he sprang into action and delivered two right hooks.
The blows were so powerful that McCalium, who had just lunged at Mr Corti with the knife, was left looking like he had been in 'a car accident'.
The pensioner then restrained him until police arrived. He was jailed for four and a half years yesterday after a judge told him he had 'got what he deserved'.
