Charles Bronson or Michael Gordon Peterson as he was born, is an English criminal and is considered the most violent prisoner in Britain. He did found his way into fight but then he started bare-knuckle fighting in the east end of London. His promoter was unhappy with his name and suggested him to change it to Charles Bronson and he did.

He got in jail because of robbery in a post office, he stole £26.18 and was sentenced for seven years but he got into a lot of fights in prison, which added several years. He did only spent sixty-nine days as a free man until he got arrested again
