-Duilio Loi -Young Corbett III -Johnny Dundee -Nino Benvenuti -Salvatore Burruni -Sandro Mazzinghi -Bruno Arcari -Paolo Rosi -Francesco Damiani -Primo Carnera -Carmelo Bossi I'm likely missing some, but this is probably the numerical order I would choose.
Plus -Sumbu Kalambay -Vito Antuofermo Gatti was born in Italy, does he count? Is this professionals only?
It's strange how there have been great Italian American fighters but not that many Italian born greats.
No one gives a shite about boxing in Italy. It goes thusly: Calcio, Calcio, Calcio, Calcio, Calcio... motorsports, bicicleta, volley ball, il basket. Did I mention Calcio?
How could I forget Vito Antuofermo?????? I should also add in Rocky Mattioli, Paul Ferreri and Sandro Lopopolo
I've never heard of Francesco Rossi and Arredondo and Ncita weren't Italian. But Oliva is a good choice.
D'Agata is an excellent pick. I'm also reminded of another top Italian bantam from that era named Piero Rollo. The list is getting heavy.
Is the minority, i am from spain and is similar here the king sports are football(what you call soccer),tennis,basket,motorsports,bicicleta,swimming,mma. BUT the boxing is loved by a part of the population,specially in my place canary islands
