Here are 5 more from the late 1940's. Includes some HW's but since I am not sure anyone other than myself would have much interest in them figure I will just make one post for them all rather than a couple here and a couple in the HW thread.

Angelo Ambrosano - Philadelphia Featherweight began career 12-1-1 against mostly unknowns before losing by second round KO against Sandy Saddler. He would lose his next 3 fights to Jock Leslie, Percy Basett and Billy Banks before retiring.

Tony Bosnich - San Francisco HW fought exclusively on the west coast. Lost to Turkey Thompson, Joey Maxim and Pat Valentine among others.

Leon Hutson - Cambridge Mass. featherweight lost twice to Fernando Gagnon.

Bob Johnson - Kansas heavyweight KO'd twice by Pat McCafferty

Al Spaulding - Baltimore HW had plenty of fights ending in KO's but more often than not they were picking Al up off the canvas. Late in his career lost to Archie Moore.
