A knife-wielding burglar had a shock when he attacked a pensioner in his home - and discovered his victim was a retired boxer.
Senior citizen Frank Corti, 72, a former junior boxing champion is still a bit handy with his dukes.
And when he spotted the aforementioned intruder, Gregory McCalium, in his hallway he sprang into action and delivered two right hooks.

This happened in the UK right? So we can expect Grandpa to be going to jail.
And very good right hooks they were. Too bad there wasn’t an uppercut or two to take that stupid ring out of his lip.
Might fine.
ping for a great and well deserved butt kicking.
Beea - utiFUL! ;0)
Bet it hurts getting punched in those rings.
I’ll bet those hooks felt real good with those piercings in.

Even tho this has been posted about nine times in the last couple of days, I still get a chuckle out of this clown’s puss......
I wounder if his dentures are still in place?
I searched it by title and keyword and anything else I could think of and NOTHING came up.
Does anyone believe in using reasonable keywords?
Oooh Pops hits hard don’t he?
Simplify your searches. Don’t search by exact title. Search for a word in the title that doesn’t show up on a regular basis.
Boxer.

Yep, you might get some results for Barbara from CA......But you will surely get some news of the day, as well.
The only reason I am aware of this story is that I FReep too much....
;-)
Still, you gotta love that stupid mug shot!!!!!
So attempted murder or aggravated assault gets you 4 hours in jail in Britain???
His friends at the Senior Center refer to him as “Rocky”...
OK, I tried that and this time something came up.
But not one of those other threads had keywords that were related to the article in any way that made sense.
One thread didn’t even have keywords.
If people would pick their keywords from the title, that would help the searches a LOT.
Keywords should be a required field.
Another thing is, many times I’ve done title searches by copying and pasting the title and nothing comes up.
Later I’ll find a thread with the EXACT title that didn’t show up in the search, cause it’s from the exact source I used.
Sheesh.
lol
