Congratulations to Dave 'Boy' Green, who has been awarded the MBE in the Queen's New Year's honour's list. In his heyday the Chatteris boxer was a familiar sight in Ely, striding around on market day in his sheepskin coat, and his son still runs a hairdressing business in the city. Formerly the British Light Welterweight and European Light Welterweight champion, the 'Fen Tiger' twice fought Sugar Ray Leonard before his career was up. He successfully moved into business and he has been honoured for his charitable works.
