UK: Hero boxer knocks out two thugs out after being stabbed in the chest
Terrifying footage shows an amateur boxer being stabbed in the chest before fighting back to knock out the two attackers with his fists. Jon Shaw, 34, was set upon by brothers Daniel and David Smith who barged into his gym and dragged him into the car park. Footage of the attack, which was filmed by Jon’s colleague, shows David grab him in a headlock while Daniel slashed at him with a blade. Boxer and fitness instructor Jon was stabbed twice through the chest but despite his injuries, he managed to launch a fearsome fight back. Video shows Jon taking on both brothers before landing punches which left them sprawled on the ground. Jon managed to make his way to hospital where he was treated for a punctured lung after he was ambushed on June 1 last year. Doctors told Jon that one of the stab wounds had narrowly missed an artery near his heart. The dad-of-one, who runs DP Boxing Club in Worcester, declined to press charges but the pair were arrested days later, initially on suspicion of attempted murder. Daniel Smith, 36, was ultimately jailed for 50 months after he admitted wounding with intent and possession of a blade and criminal damage. His younger brother David, 34, received a 12-month community penalty for affray. Speaking after the sentencing at Worcester Crown Court this week, Jon blasted the “soft sentences” handed out to the brothers.
