missing info for Vinnie D'Andrea

Post by DAndrea12 »

I just found some old newspaper clippings of my grandfather Vinnie D'Andrea. It would be very appreciated if you could add this:

Height: 5' 7"
Alias: Pride of Mulberry Bend AND The Mulberry Bend Kid
Hometown: east side New York , NewYork
Manager: Tommy Mara
Trainer: Johnny Sullo
Date of Birth: 10/13/30
Age at death: 42

Knockout Times and quotes: Kenny Clark 3rd fight (2:54 of 1st round)

Fred Fisher 6th fight (1:53 of 5th round)

Luciano Gorno 7th fight (0:55 of 5th round)
"Gorno bled freely from the nose and was
being gradually cut down when the fight was halted." NY Times

Phill Rizzo 29th fight (0:56 of 1st round)
Referee: Johnny Burns
"D'Andrea floored Rizzo for a nine count. After Rizzo had regained his feet, D'Andrea forced the still dazed Brooklyn fighter to the ropes and was crashing rights and lefts to the head and body when referee Johnny Burns stepped in and halted the bout" NY Times

:box: It will be highly appreciated if you could add this to his profile and change some of the wrong information

:box: Thanks
