A PROFESSIONAL boxer who was caught in his car with \u00a335,000 worth of cocaine has been jailed for two years.<\/p>\n

Welterweight Jack Ewbank was stopped by cops as he drove through Folkestone, Kent, with four bags of the class A drug.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Police searching the 33-year-old's home discovered a further 340g of cocaine divided into 12 packages – totalling up to \u00a334,700.<\/p>\n

Officers also discovered a phone with 36,000 messages that were "indicative of drug supply".<\/p>\n

Ewbank has now been jailed for two years and five months after he pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine and possessing criminal property.<\/p>\n

The boxer, who has won four of his nine professional fights, claimed he was a "one-man band" dealing small amounts to customers.<\/p>\n

But Judge Simon Taylor KC said it made little difference whether Ewbank "had his fingers in two pies or his pie was a little bit bigger".<\/p>\n

Canterbury Crown Court heard Ewbank was pulled over by police acting on "intelligence" on August 21, 2021.<\/p>\n

The boxing gym owner has since turned his life around through cognitive behavioural therapy.<\/p>\n

In a letter he wrote to his sister, Ewbank said he was "ashamed, disappointed and suicidal".<\/p>\n

He also described the decision to sell drugs as "the biggest mistake of his life".<\/p>\n

Sentencing, Judge Taylor said: "That is one of the tragedies – that no doubt the man who stands before me today is very different to the man committing the offence of drug supply.<\/p>\n

"The delay in this case gave you the opportunity to prove you wanted to put your offending behind you, and you have."<\/p>\n
