    No. another Italian by the name of Joey Giardello. There is no record of his having fought amature.

    He was inducted into the IBHF in 1993 and was also inducted into theWBHF. His career record was 101 wins, 25 losses and 7 draws, but even more impressively, he was 5-3-1 against other boxers in the Hall of Fame, including a 2-2 mark against Dick Tiger.

    Giardello was born in Brooklyn but grew up in Philly.
