	~~== Biography ==~~
	'''Teddy Baldock''' is enshrined in the record books as Britain's youngest world champion of the modern era. Born in Poplar on 23 May 1907, Baldock's professional career started when he was thirteen-years-old. By age 17, with his brilliant boxing skills and ring magnetism, he was appearing as a top-liner at the Albert Hall.

	After returning from a successful trip to America, where he took part in 12 contests, winning 11 and drawing 1, Baldock was matched with America's Archie Bell for the vacant World Bantamweight Title. After one of the greatest bouts between boxing's little men, Baldock was declared World Champion at age 19. He went on to become the undefeated British and Commonwealth Bantamweight Champion.

	Baldock retired at 24 after a distinguished career of 81 fights with 5 losses. He remained a hero of the East End, long after his heyday in the ring. But his taste for the good life, including drinking and gambling, resulted in the breakup of his marriage. Baldock died penniless in 1971.
