Anyone know the record for Salamo Arouch

Post by WildRebel »

According to the movie Triumph of The Spirit. Greek boxer Salamo Arouch boxed in the Olympics. He was either the amateur/or professional Middleweight Boxing Champion of the Balkan States. In an Official Boxing Magazine article, Arouch was said to be undefeated at 25-0. He was deported from Greece to the death camp at Aushwitz, where he was "forced" to box in camp "death" matches, so that Nazi officers could bet on these fights. According to an article, Arouch estimated he defeated 200 opponents(all jewish & gypsy inmate boxers) in these matches. Was wondering if anyone had a record or info on Arouch.
