Al Casimini
A search turned up nothing, but if this pug has already been rated, please forgive the duplication.
<a href="http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=031905" target="_blank">Al Casimini</a> was a New York lightweight who fought throughout the thirties, finishing with a record of 39-23-8 (13).
A good local fighter with a hard punch, he faltered against front-rank competition, losing to Leonard Del Genio, Izzy Jannazzo, Eddie Zivic, Steve Halaiko, Eddie Cool, Johnny Bellus, <i>et al.</I> He won a split eight-round decision from Bobby Pacho in February 1935 and outpointed Midget Mexico in March 1936. Otherwise he was best at putting an end to the dreams of other local hotshots like Johnny Barra, Dick Cabello, Andy Miratello, and Johnny Bonito.
