100 DAYS-100 HARDEST PUNCHERS IN BOXING HISTORY-#34- Rocky Graziano.
Fighters who stepped within reach of Rocky “Rockaby” Graziano knew they were entering a punishing no man’s land.
Graziano wasn’t in the business of backing down, as he set out to destroy the opposition with explosive, sledgehammer punches.
Thomas Rocco Barbella (January 1, 1919[1] – May 22, 1990), better known as Rocky Graziano, was an American professional boxer who held the World Middleweight title.Graziano is considered one of the greatest knockout artists in boxing history, often displaying the capacity to take his opponent out with a single punch. He was ranked 23rd on The Ring magazine list of the greatest punchers of all time. He fought many of the best middleweights of the era including Sugar Ray Robinson. His turbulent and violent life story was the basis of the 1956 Oscar-winning drama film, Somebody Up There Likes Me, based on his 1955 autobiography of the same title. In his youth Graziano was close friends with future fighter Jake La Motta, and both troubled youths attended the same juvenile reform school. Graziano was drafted during World War II, but he later deserted from the U.S. Army after punching an officer. During his brief time with the military, Graziano became a professional boxer and adopted his new name to evade the army. He was found nonetheless, sentenced to nine months in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kansas, and dishonourably discharged from military service.
