Mallin injured his left hand in his Olympic endeavours, however, and he was forced to retire from boxing. Undeterred by this fuss, Mallin disposed of a Belgian boxer with some aplomb in the semi, to reach a final in which he out-pointed his British team-mate Jack Eliot. The English press had a field day, accusing Brousse of ‘sampling the unroasted human beef of Old England’. The decision was later overturned and Brousse disqualified. His quarter-final opponent, a local favourite named Roger Brousse, was dubiously judged to have won on points, despite Mallin having shown the referee bite marks on his arm and chest left by the Frenchman during the bout. Mallin retained the Olympic title in controversial fashion at the 1924 game in Paris. The Eton Manor newsletter, reporting his triumph, noted drily that in his day job, ‘he has not had a ‘single drunk’ who wants to fight him’. At Antwerp in August 1920 he beat the Canadian George Prud'homme on points to take gold, having bested two Americans and another Canadian on his way to the final. Mallin’s greatest triumphs in the ring were at the Olympic games.
