EDITORS COMMENTS
Primo Carnera, the Italian-born heavyweight boxing champion, triumphantly raises the belt high above his head in celebration after defeating Jack Sharkey in a brutal and hard-fought match at the Madison Square Garden Bowl in New York City on December 15, 1933. Carnera, born in Sequals, Italy in 1906, had made a name for himself as a formidable contender in the boxing world, known for his powerful punches and unyielding determination. In this historic moment, Carnera's dream of becoming the World Heavyweight Champion had finally come true. The crowd at Madison Square Garden erupted in cheers as Carnera, with a record of 21 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw, claimed his victory over Sharkey, who had previously held the title. The Italian-American community in New York City and across the United States rejoiced in the triumph of one of their own, as Carnera became an icon and a symbol of pride and perseverance. This photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of boxing and Italian-American culture, a testament to the determination and grit of Primo Carnera, the new World Heavyweight Champion. Carnera's legacy would continue to inspire generations of boxers and Italian-Americans, leaving a lasting impact on the sport and the community. Primo Carnera's victory over Jack Sharkey marked the beginning of a new era in the heavyweight division, and this photograph serves as a reminder of the thrilling and unforgettable moments in the annals of boxing history.
