Charlie Nash (born 1951 in Derry, Northern Ireland), is a retired Irish boxer. As just an amateur, he held an Irish national title and represented Ireland in the 1972 Olympic Games. As a professional, he won the professional British and then European lightweight titles but lost to Jim Watt, when he challenged him for the World Boxing Council title. He has given several interviews about having to check several bodies laid out in a hospital morgue in order to identify that of his brother William, who was killed during the Bloody Sunday massacre.
