Anthony Grano (born November 11, 1980) is an American professional boxer. He was the US amateur heavyweight (201 lbs limit) champion in 2005.
2005
Grano, originally from Connecticut, now trains and fights out of West Palm Beach FL. Weighing 220 pounds, Italian-American Tony "TNT" Grano made his debut in 2005. In 2009, Grano scored a KO over previously undefeated (18–0) amateur star Travis Kauffman. It was Ring Magazine's 2009 heavyweight fight of the year. After stopping veteran Brian Minto in a NABF heavyweight title eliminator in the third round Grano knocked out shopworn 43-year old former contender DaVarryl Williamson for the NABF heavyweight championship. He lost his momentum after a unanimous decision loss to Eric Molina (19–2) in 2013 and has been idle since.
