Dennis Taglianetti

Dennis Taglianetti was a professional American Welterweight boxer from Brooklyn, New York. As an amateur Taglianetti trained at the Police Athletic Leagues Howard Houses in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn, New York. His trainer at Howard Houses was Al Fischetti. Fischetti trained many New York Golden Gloves champions that spanned several decades. Taglianetti advanced to the semi-finals of the 1973 New York Golden Gloves 147lb. sub-novice division and was eliminated.

Taglianetti made his professional debut on November 5, 1973 at the Felt Forum in New York City. Taglianetti defeated Tito Flores on a unanimous four round decision. Flores was knocked down several times during the fight.

On March 8, 1974, Taglianetti defeated veteran Eliezer Negron on a unanimous four round decision at Madison Square Garden to run his record to three wins and no losses.

On April 1, 1974 Taglianetti fought a four round draw with tough Ricardo Conde at the Felt Forum in New York City. On November 22, 1974 Taglianetti defeated veteran fighter Hugo Velasquez by four round decision at Madison Square Garden.

Taglianetti lost his first fight on January 30, 1975 to Hugo Velasquez by four round decision at the Embassy Hall in North Bergen, New Jersey.

After a three year layoff Taglianetti returned to the ring and won a very unpopular four round decision over Tom Molloy at the Roll-A-Rama in Brooklyn, New York. A month later Taglianetti won a four round decision over veteran Nino Cosmo at the Roll-A-Rama in Brooklyn, New York.

Taglianetti's unofficial professional record was six wins one loss and one draw.
