	From a relative: I am a nephew-in-law of Augie Pisano. There always seems to be much confusion about him, so I will tell what I was told directly by him, his wife (my Aunt Marion) and my parents. He was a good boxer, but not a good businessman. When he started having some success the friends he grew up with, who were now members of organized crime gangs, offered to handle his finances. He trusted them and as a result they stole all his money and even stole his name. One of them, Anthony Carfano, claimed for years that he was the boxer Augie Pisano, which wasn't true. My uncle made a lot of money for the time, but was left penniless and had to work the rest of his life as a janitor in the Brooklyn Navy Yards, living in a small basement apartment near Coney Island.
