Giovanni De Carolis (born 21 August 1984) is an Italian professional boxer and the current WBA (Regular) super-middleweight champion.[1]

Professional career

De Carolis made his professional debut on 17 November 2007, scoring a second-round stoppage over Marian Tomcany.[1] On 14 June 2008, De Carolis fought outside of his native Italy for the first time, travelling to Ukraine and suffering his first defeat against then-reigning IBF Youth middleweight champion Max Bursak, who stopped him in eight rounds.[2] De Carolis' first opportunity at a major regional championship came on 30 January 2010, for the vacant European Union super-middleweight title. He lost a twelve-round majority decision to Lolenga Mock.[3]

On 17 October 2015, De Carolis inched closer to a major world title when he fought Vincent Feigenbutz for the WBA interim super-middleweight title. Feigenbutz won a close unanimous decision with judges' scores of 115–113, 115–113 and 114–113, but the result was seen by some observers as controversial.[4] A rematch took place on 9 January 2016, with De Carolis avenging his defeat by winning the WBA (Regular) super-middleweight title, which had since been upgraded from interim status.[5]
