	==Biography==		==Biography==
	~~Born~~ in Saint-Dizier, Haute-Marne in ~~the Champagne~~-~~Ardenne Region of~~ France~~, '''Marcel Thil'''~~ started boxing at a very young age and turned professional at the age of ~~sixteen~~. ~~For~~ a number of years ~~he was a journeyman boxer,~~ but as he matured to full adult strength~~, with training~~, he developed power in both hands ~~that saw him begin~~ to win regularly by knockout.		'''Marcel Thil''' was born in [[Wikipedia:Saint-Dizier\|Saint-Dizier]], a [[Wikipedia:Communes of France\|commune]] in the [[Wikipedia:Haute-Marne\|Haute-Marne]] [[Wikipedia:Departments of France\|department]] in north-eastern France. He started boxing at a very young age and turned professional at the age of 16. Thil was a [[journeyman]] boxer for a number of years but as he gained experience and matured to full adult strength, he developed power in both hands and began to win regularly by knockout.

	~~In 1928,~~ Thil won the French middleweight boxing championship and the following year ~~captured the European title~~. After losing his European championship ~~he came back~~ to capture the International Boxing Union ~~[[IBU~~]] world middleweight championship ~~through~~ a ~~controversial eleventh round disqualification in 1932~~.		Thil won the French middleweight boxing championship in 1928 and captured the Europe title the following year. After losing his European championship in 1930, Thil won his next 15 fights and then defeated [[Gorilla Jones]] by a controversial [[Marcel Thil vs. Gorilla Jones\|11th-round disqualification]] to capture the [[National Boxing Association]] (NBA) world middleweight championship and the vacant [[International Boxing Union]] (IBU) world middleweight championship on June 11, 1932 in Paris, France. With his championship victory, Thil became the toast of Paris. He was a major celebrity and a good friend of celebrated actor Jean Gabin.

	~~He became~~ a ~~major celebrity and as a good friend of celebrated actor Jean Gabin~~, he was the ~~toast of Paris during the next four and~~ a ~~half years when he successfully defended his middleweight~~ title ~~on nine occasions. In addition~~, ~~Thil moved up a weight class to win~~ the ~~European light-heavyweight title~~.		Thil successfully defended the title on July 4, 1932 with a 15-round unanimous decision against [[Len Harvey]], but he then went more than a year without defending the title. Thil was stripped by the NBA for failing to make a title defense by August 15, 1933, but he remained the IBU champion.

	In ~~1935~~ Thil ~~lived~~ in ~~the Soviet Union and trained the Soviet Union National team~~. ~~Among his boxers were~~ the ~~legendary heavyweights Stepanov and Mihailov. (Source: Norwegian newspaper ''Arbeiderbladet'' 1935)~~.		In addition to defending the IBU middleweight championship, Thil moved up a weight class to win the European light-heavyweight title in 1934. He would successfully defend the title once.

	~~On September 23, 1937~~, in ~~New York City, Thil lost a non-title fight to [[Fred Apostoli]] when~~ the ~~fight had to be stopped after he suffered a severe gash over one eye. At thirty-three years of age, Thil chose to retire~~. In his ~~career, he had fought 148 times, winning 113 of them, with 54 via knockout~~. ~~He lost 22 fights, and fought to a draw on 13 occasions~~.		In 1935, Thil lived in the Soviet Union and trained the Soviet Union national boxing team. Among his boxers were the legendary heavyweights Victor Stepanov and Victor Mihailov. (Source: Norwegian newspaper ''Arbeiderbladet'' 1935).

	Thil ~~remained active~~ in ~~boxing circles as an adviser and cornerman~~, ~~and~~ was ~~named honorary president~~ of the ~~Dieppe Boxing Club~~.		After successfully defending the IBU middleweight championship 11 times, Thil fought [[Fred Apostoli]] in a non-title bout on September 23, 1937 in New York City. Apostoli won by a [[Marcel Thil vs. Fred Apostoli\|10th-round technical knockout]]. The fight was stopped due to a severe cut over the right eye of Thil, who was ahead on points at the time of the stoppage. Shortly after the loss, the 33-year-old Thil retired from boxing.

	He made a living with a company in Reims until ~~eventually~~ retiring to a home in Cannes on the French Riviera ~~where, in 1968, he died after being seriously injured in an automobile accident. He is buried there in the Grand Jas Cemetery~~.		Thil remained active in boxing circles as an adviser and [[second\|cornerman]] and was named honorary president of the [[Wikipedia:Dieppe, Seine-Maritime\|Dieppe]] Boxing Club.
