There is an older thread about Lee Canalito in the other forum.I'll bump it up.
IMOP Canalito retired before he was to get a real test.
He dropped out like a day before his scheduled fights both with Scott Frank(May.1983 NBC) and Tex Cobb(April.1985)
which were to be televised to a nationwide audience.

Perhaps this newspaper article dated 01.0ctober 1982 and written by a
* "critic" from the Chicago Sun-Times has the answer(?)
