Trevor King, 78, the founder
of the Westside Mission in
Sydney, NSW, Australia, was
delivering food to a destitute
family when two men arrived
to repossess their personal
items. When one of the repo
men allegedly started
pushing the lady of the house
around, King stepped forward.
"This chap said, 'Get out of the
way, you silly old goat' to
Trevor," homeowner Ted Ferguson
said. "Trevor took him out with
one punch." Trevor King was
a featherweight boxing champion
--fifty years ago -- and
described the scene a bit
differently. "This fellow had a go at
me so I inadvertently threw my
right hand and he collided with it,"
said King, who suffers from
leukemia and a bad heart. When the
second repo man saw his partner
go down, he repeatedly
punched King in the stomach, but when King didn't even flinch, the man
fled. (Sydney Morning Herald)
