JOEY LaMOTTA - MW (1945-1946) Overall Rating = 4
Hometown - Bronx, New York, USA
Brother of Jake LaMotta
32(21)-5-2
Joey fought as a professional for a frantic twenty-two months. Over that period he faced 39 opponents, most of whom were not great fighters but did not lack experience. He beat Lew Perez, Lee Black, Ballesandro Carubia and Tony Riccio among others. He slowed down the pace a bit from March to November of 1946, losing and drawing with Joey Blackwood, out pointing Gene Boland, losing to Anton Raadik and twice to Freddy Flores. He was stopped once, by Flores.
(I guessed his year of birth to be 1925)
