  • Primo Carnera
    From The Website alyHeritage ➩ Primo Carnera https://www.italyheritage.com/great-italians/sport/primo-carnera.htm Primo Carnera Primo Carnera (Sequals, October 25, 1906 - Sequals, June 29, 1967), was the world heavyweight champion from 29 June 1933 to 14 June 1934. For his physical strength, his personal qualities, his life, he is forever imprinted in the history of the boxing world, and has become a legend internationally. Primo Carnera was born in Sequals, a village in the province of Pordenone, in October 25, 1906, and at birth weighed 8 kg. His family was very poor and only survived thanks to the work of his father, a mosaic artist who emigrated to Germany. In 1915 his father was called to fight in the First World War and therefore had to leave his job, leaving all the burden of the family on his wife. The mother then sought a job, but was soon forced to sell her wedding ring to survive. Carnera was thus obliged to leave school and to beg with his brothers. Surprisingly, the "strongest man in the world" always maintained a great love for poetry, and knew whole cantos of the Divine Comedy by heart. He was growing to the point that, at twelve years old, he had the stature of an adult and was also arrested as a deserter, until his relatives came to explain that he was just a kid wearing adult men's clothes. Still a teenager, driven by poverty, Primo emigrated to France to stay with his uncle, finding employment as a carpenter. The uncles introduced him to the world of boxing, organizing a match with a beginner, but Carnera was not yet ready for the big step.

  • International Boxing Research Organization Newsletter #26 September 1987
    International Boxing Research Organization Newsletter #26 September 1987 From: Tim Leone Sorry about being a week late on the last Newsletter, but I broke another copyer and it was necessary to have the copy work done by a printing company. To date there has been a total of 90,000 feet of 8mm and S8mm requested for transfer, about 8,000 feet of 16mm and 58 hours of VHS duplication requested. I'm surprised that Castle Films is no longer in business. Again, I must express gratitude to those members who took time to write and phone their encourgement over the resumption of the Newsletter. The organization is a joint venture involving all of us. Without the support of the membership, none of this would be possible. -- Long Live Boxing -- I am involved in doing research in the pre-1932 years of the career of Tiger Jack Fox. At the moment there are numerous verifications of main event matches between the years of 1925 and 1932 for him. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated. In this Newsletter, Thanks must go to the following gentlemen for their contributions: Tracy Callis, Dave Block, Paul Zabala, Bob Soderman, Lawrence Fielding, John Grasso, John Hibner, and Lucketta Davis. 1 V-1 E I F ID I FzECTOFt "V F" 1J A E NEW MEMBERS Jack Barry 33 Skyline Drive West Haven, CT 06516 Phone (203) 933-6651 Mr. Barry is interested in professional boxing from the bareknuckle era to 1959 in the U.S.A.
