Italian Joe Gans, known as a great exponent of fitness, was one of the many fighters who took on the name of the great Joe Gans. (Another of Italian extraction was known as "Dago Joe Gans.")

According to Rolando Vitale, author of "The Real Rockys: A History of the Golden Age of Italian-Americans in Boxing 1900-1955", the correct spelling of his last name is Camberlango (page 283).

Strangely, his record never appeared in a published record book. Perhaps the first to be printed was by Luckett Davis in IBRO Journal #68; the present linked record is derived from that one, with corrections.
