-- A former boxing champion in Britain was slammed a life sentence on Friday after killing a man with a punch, at a party organized last October. The assailant, Garry Delaney, 35, will serve at least 11 years in prison after prosecutors found him guilty.

Delaney's victim was 23-year-old Paul Price. According to court testimony Price was lifted off the ground by the punch and fatally hit is head on the ground when he fell.

The incident happened in the British town of Essex. Delaney, who was bouncer at the County Hotel in Woodford, was asked to remove Price and his friend after they were denied access to the party for dressing inappropriately.

He picked Price's friend and threw him in a nearby bush. When Price questioned his action, he allegedly initiated a fight. According to reports Judge Leonard Goldstone told Delaney, "Your fist became a lethal weapon."

He continued, "Paul Price was no threat to you or anyone else."

Goldstone went on to tell Delaney, "You behaved like a bully." Adding that, "When you knew that both of them were injured - at least one seriously - you reacted like a coward."

According prosecutor Alan Suckling, Price confronted the bouncer saying, "Why did you do that?" He replied with a, "powerful blow to the face, lifting him off his feet and striking the ground with a crack."
