I would please like to know how good is the first former wbo heavyweight champion Francesco Damiani in style, strength, weakness, and his best punch?

His weakness was his big roman nose that led to both his losses when it got broken.

I remember many years ago during the intro to one of his fights (against DuPlooy I think aint whatched it in years need to dig the tape out to be sure) UK fight commentator Reg Gutteridge said of Damiani

"He has the face of a farmer, the body of a wrestler, but he gets the job done".

Classic Reg.
