He's the grandson of Cesare Garbelli, a great Amateur with almost 500 fights- in the Mussolini dictatorship era, which didn't allow professional boxng.

There are huge press press cuttings displays covering the walls of two big  rooms in his daughter’s house about his career... and all his filmed fights from Italian Government TV RAI.
