A professional boxer who killed a talented young student with a single punch to the face on a drunken night out has been jailed for seven years.

Super middleweight Clifton Ty Mitchell, 21, hit Jagdip Randhawa, 19, with a jab to the chin during a row outside a Subway fast food restaurant in Leeds.

The blow knocked the victim unconscious and caused him to fall and hit his head on the concrete pavement.

Mr Randhawa - described as a 'brilliant student' and 'excellent sportsman' - was taken to Leeds General Infirmary with a fractured skull and bleeding from the brain.

He never regained consciousness and died five days later on October 17 last year.

Sentencing Mitchell for manslaughter at Leeds Crown Court Mr Justice Maddison order that his jail term be extended by three years because he is a dangerous offender.

'You have been a professional boxer and it is a great shame that you will not be able to maintain what was clearly a promising career,' the judge said.

'But, being a professional boxer, you have the strength and skill to cause serious harm with your bare fists.'

Mitchell, of Broadway Park Close, Derby, had a string of previous convictions for similar offences, including punching a woman in a nightclub, and knocking out a man in Derby city centre
