Biography
A member of the London Polytechnic Boxing Club, Horace Mansergh reached the 1914 ABA middleweight final only to lose to Hugh Brown of Belsize BC. It was the last Championship before World War I, and when they resumed in 1919, both Mansergh and Brown had stepped up to heavyweight and Brown knocked out the Polytechnic man in the third round of their semi-final bout.
A master bricklayer by trade, Mansergh later turned to officiating as an ABA judge and referee and, in addition to refereeing at the 1936 Olympics, he was also one of the officials at the 1939 European Boxing Championships in Dublin. Mansergh was also secretary of the Polytechnic BC for more than 25 years, until resigning his post in 1957.
