After Leigh Hancock, 36, joined Fallon Bramall's boxing gym she owned with her husband, the pair took him under their wing. 39-year-old Fallon's husband trained Leigh to become a cage fighter. He competed and won competitions across the country. But one day, he moved away from the area and Fallon didn't see him until over ten years later. Meanwhile, her and her husband split. When she bumped into Leigh again in March 2022 the pair started dating. But soon, he controlled her finances and within months, he'd drained her bank account of £3,000. In July that year, Leigh flipped and attacked Fallon, punching and biting her all over her body. The assault lasted ten hours. Bizarrely, Leigh made Fallon make him a sausage sandwich at knife point. He even threatened to kill her and her children if she didn't get him £100. In May 2023, Leigh Hancock was convicted of making threats to kill, ABH and damaging property. He was jailed for 40 months at Derby Crown Court.
