R.I.P to a great fighter. One of the all time great chins and one of the toughest fighters to ever step foot in the ring.

He will be missed.

I just read this tweeted by Mike Tyson:

Mike Tyson @MikeTyson

Rest in Peace to Salvatore DiCarlo and Carmen Basillo. You both will be missed

Any DiCarlo fans here, I'm not familiar with him?

one of the best looks you'll ever see for a fighter. you should complete it if you find the time. you've got a lot of talent with your graphics work, and it would be a fitting tribute to a great american fighter.

i used to stumble upon his picture in the "boxing register" when i was about 12 years old and think "who the hell is this guy?"


my father's favorite fighters:

carl froch
sonny liston
paulie maglinaggi
and the onion farmer.
