    Default Interesting Boxrec finds?

    I'm in the middle of reading a bio on old Blue Eyes Frank Sinatra, and in it they mentioned that Frank's old man used to fight pro under the name of Marty O'brien (a lot of Italian fighters used to fight under Irish names to make themselves acceptable to a wider audience).

    So I looked him up on boxrec and sure enough, there he was, 1-6 with his only win coming on a DQ.

    Marty O'Brien

    Not a huge deal but it got me thinking what kind of other interesting boxing records are out there? I know Tony Danza has one, and deceased mob boss Vince Gigante had a pretty good record.

    Anyone else know of any other celebrity/underworld characters/ect have fought pro?

    Didn't Jack Palance fight someone who went on to fight Joe Louis or something ?
