Well, you said he is Bronx heavyweight, Italian, never knocked down on pro, fought on major Marciano undercard.

yeah,seen that. I mean, with all them clues about being italian, a heavyweight, fought during Rockys reign, a heavy in movies, and someone turns up with ANOTHER name that could easily have been the correct answer

in fact, your answer sounds the more impressive of the two (sorry JG)
