Jack Bodell (born 11 August 1940 in Swadlincote) was active during the 1960s and 1970s. Bodell started out as a Light heavyweight, winning the 1961 ABA championships and a bronze medal at the European amateur championships the same year. He won the British heavyweight championship in 1969, before losing it to Henry Cooper in his first defence. Bodell regained the title a year later by out-pointing Joe Bugner. Among his other notable fights were a knockout loss to Jerry Quarry and a points win over future world title contender Jose "King" Roman. Bodell's final record was 58 wins (including 31 by knockout) and 13 losses.
