greatest italian boxer.....

Francesco Damiani. Beat Stevenson in the ams. Not the greatest, but shouldn't be forgotten here.

 

Nino Benvenuti is right up there as well.

 

And Paulie Malignaggi.

 

Calzaghe?

 

If you mean italian in the strictest sense of the word then I will have to go with Duilo Loi.

 

Michael Nunn?

 

Bruno Arcari, Rocky Mattioli,Nino Benvenuti,Vito Antufermo,Joey Maxim,Tony Canzonari,Rocky Marciano,Carmine Basilio,Rocky Graziano,Joey Maxin(Bernardelli)Joey Giardello,Wille Pep,Sandro Mazzinghi,Dulio Loi, Franchesco Damiano,Jake Lamotta,Sammy Angott,Lou Ambers,Sammy Madell,Rocky Kansas,Johhny Dundee,Rocky Castellani,Roland Lastarza,Michael Rossman Dipiano,Vinny Paz,Johnny Verderosa,Boom Boom Mancini,Arturo Gatti,Fred Asposoli,I know I am leaving a lot out off the top off my head

 

Loris Stecca and Patrazio Oliva certainly weren't the best of the bench, but probably deserve a quick mention as two of the better fighters to come out of Italy. Ditto Vito Antuofermo.
