(JULY 24) On Sunday, July 20th, an special
event was held that was dedicated to the memory of
Primo
Carnera, the Great Italian Heavyweight
of the 1930's. The event was held in Sequals (PN) where Camera was
born, and this year was the 18th edition. Every year the
organization invites a special guest, such as ex-pro boxers, and they also
invite Maria GiovannaCarnera,
the daughter of Primo that comes from the United States to attend the
event.
On this particular event, Italian pro female boxer Sonia De Biase
fought a four-round exhibition against Silvia La Notte, who is the
Italian Savate Champion and European Vice-Champion.
Denis from Donne & Guantoni told WBAN, "They showed good skills and
all the crowd were surprised to see for the first time in this region two
women in the ring. I bought two pair of women’s pro fight gloves from
Ringside and the girls used these gloves. At the end of the exhibition
they signed the gloves." |
