  • Former World Champion to Be Honored Guest at August 8 Hyannis Boxing Event
    FORMER WORLD CHAMPION TO BE HONORED GUEST AT AUGUST 8 HYANNIS BOXING EVENT Hyannis, Massachusetts [June 24, 2015] – Former world champion, “The Fleet Street Fury” Tony DeMarco (58-12-1, 33 KO’s), will be the special guest of honor at the boxing event August 8th at the Hyannis Youth & Community Center (HYCC) in beautiful Cape Cod. That night’s event will be headlined by the Northeast Heavyweight Championship fight between Hyannis’ Jesse Barboza (9-1-1, 5 KO’s) and Pennsylvania’s Jesse Oltmanns (10-5, 7 KO’s). It will also feature an eight-round light heavyweight fight between Harwich’s Paul Gonsalves (7-7-1, 3 KO’s) and Mexico’s Rafael Valenzuela (8-5, 1 KO). DeMarco, a legend in Boston’s North End, where there is a statue in his likeness at the corners of Hanover and Cross Streets, headlined the old Boston Garden more than any fighter in history. He won the welterweight world championship in 1955 with a 14th round TKO over reigning champ Johnny Saxton in Syracuse, NY. He would lose the title later that year to Hall of Famer Carmen Basilio in a brutal 12-round fight back at the Garden that was named “Fight of the Year” by Ring Magazine. DeMarco also headlined the last boxing event ever to be held at Boston’s Fenway Park in 1956. On August 8th, he’ll be available for autographs & pictures and will be selling copies of his autobiography, “Nardo: Memoirs of a Boxing Champion.” The August 8, 2015 event will be presented by Boston Boxing Promotions.

    Name: Carmen Basilio Career Record: click Alias: Upstate Onion Farmer Nationality: US American Hometown: Canastota, NY, USA Born: 1927-04-02 Stance: Orthodox Height: 5′ 6½″ Trainers: Angelo Dundee, Al Silvani Managers: Johnny DeJohn & Joe Netro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ISV 4lNTMLs http://www.hrc.utexas.edu/multimedia/ video/2008/wallace/basilio_carmen_t.ht ml http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xtxgi _carmen-basilio_news Carmine Basilio, born April 2, 1927 in Canastota, New York, better known in the boxing world as Carmen Basilio, is a former boxer of Italian-American origin. Some reports have suggested that Basilio changed his name from Carmine to Carmen before he began boxing, to sound more masculine. However, the reason why he changed his name to Carmen is really not known. Biography Basilio began his professional boxing career by meeting Jimmy Evans on November 24 of 1948 in Binghamton, New York. He knocked Evans out in the third round, and five days later, he beat Bruce Walters in only one round. Although he started to box late in '48, he completed four bouts before the year was over. He started 1949 with two draws, against Johnny Cummingham on January 5, and against Jay Perlin 20 days later. Basilio campaigned exclusively inside the state of New York during his first 24 bouts, going 19-3-2 during that span. His first loss was at the hands of Connie Thies, who beat him by a decision in 6 on May 2 of '49. He and Cunningham had three more fights during that period, with Basilio winning by knockout in two on their second meeting, Cummingham by a decision in eight in their third, and Basilio by decision in eight in their fourth.
