Winner of the Most Scary Woman in the UK award in 1883 was Hattie 'The Mad Hatter' Madders - the only woman ever to hold the boxing heavyweight championship of the world title. She won the belt in 1883, stopping Scottish pugilist Wee Willy Harris in the first round of their bout. A gentle woman at heart, Hattie later retired to Ireland where she became a dairy farmer.
