1936 Exhibits, Pete Scalzo 🥊 World Featherweight Champion
Pete Scalzo, is largely forgotten today, but was known as an intelligent boxer with a strong jab, disciplined footwork, and a powerful straight right — along with a knack for showmanship and humor.

He was born and raised in Hell's Kitchen, Brooklyn, NY and was a hard-working contender and champion during a very competitive era for featherweights.
