Evangelos "Ange" Goussis (born 14 September 1967) is an Australian former boxer and kickboxer from Geelong, Victoria, and is a multiple murderer, guilty of the murders of two victims of the Melbourne gangland killings.
Goussis is currently detained in the maximum security Acacia unit of Barwon Prison where he is employed as a lawn mower.
He is also a former WKA Kickboxing champion.
Goussis was born in Tashkent, in the former Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic, of the USSR to a family of Greek immigrants in Uzbekistan.
Ange Goussis' father, Aristides Goussis, had been a resistance fighter against the Nazis during World War II for Greece, and was a pro-Soviet guerilla in the brutal Greek Civil War of the late 1940s. In 1949, following the Right-Wing's victory against the communist guerillas in Greece, Aristides and his wife, Mahi, a Red Cross child-care worker, fled to Uzbekistan.
Ange Goussis arrived in Australia at the age of 8. After leaving school, Goussis held various jobs such as an apprentice motor mechanic, a sheet metal worker, fitness consultant and nightclub bouncer.
In November 1989, Goussis was convicted of attempted murder and trafficking in heroin and sentenced to a term of imprisonment.
During his early twenties, Goussis drifted into a life of crime after meeting many criminal associates via his employment as a bouncer and via boxing. In March 2004, Goussis was convicted of carrying an unregistered firearm.
