The golden days of boxing are filled with Italian all-time greats. What happened to the Italians and why don't we have Italian boxing superstars anymore? Here we rate the top 3 Italian prospects for 2021:
Nino Benvenuti Duilio Loi Bruno Arcari Sandro Mazzinghi Salvatore Burruni Gotta let Italy have Sumbu Kalambay as well seeing as he was raised and learned to box there
Mah ... gli Italiani son troppo belli. Ora che l'economia va bene, non c'e piu ragione a rovinare il viso a suon di pugni ...
Matchroom launched in Italy last year and I definitely think having a promoter putting on regular events like that will help grow the sport. The biggest issue from the last is the sport has moved on and many countries Italy included have been left behind from a training standpoint. The main reason for this is lack of funding by the government in grassroots boxing. It’s the reason UK, and many of the Eastern European countries produce a lot of tip level fighters for the size of the country.
Yeah, Young Corbett III and Dullio Loi are both greats from Italy. Italy has quite a weak collection of great fighters compared to Italian-Americans.
