Tony Galento in LIFE magazine May.30.1938

[Cap]

According to Ray Arcel and others, Galento was not a nice man. In fact, I believe they considered him somewhere below the great apes of Africa on the evolutionary scale.

Well the author certainly didn't hide his disdain for Tony's fighting abilities, haha.

I'm actually impressed by his physique on the second page in the 2nd link. Not very fat, and look at his massive David Tua-esque legs. Just an unusual barrel chest body type . . kind of like the late Bob Hoskins.

Compared to some plodders today he was practically an Adonis.
