My father knows an ex-boxer who said he was 15-0 in the late 50's/early 60's maybe, and was trained by Angelo Dundee, when my father told me he couldn't find his friend on boxrec, I told him that he must have been a 15-0 amateur...
But my dad brought home a newspaper clipping mentioning this boxer, Danny DiLiberto, 15-0 (As a pro, lightweight) and was trained by Dundee... There is nothing of him in the records.
Danny DiLiberto
There's a good chance someone is lying, we have entered a lot of stuff from that era. A 15-0 guy like that would have compiled some sort of record in this database, in all likelihood.
Looking at newspaperarchive.com, there was a Danny DiLiberto that was a competitive pool player during the 1970s out of Miami.
