Lúcio Grottone, with Sicilian ancestry, began boxing as a teenager. He achieved the light heavyweight championship of São Paulo in 1950 and later secured the Brazilian title the same year. In 1951, he repeated these triumphs and earned a silver medal at the first Pan American Games in Buenos Aires. Though eliminated in the quarter-finals at the 1952 Olympics, he retired from boxing in 1954. Grottone then focused on his wife's family fishing business but remained active as a referee and boxing administrator. In July 2016, he proudly participated in the torch relay for the Rio Olympics, carrying the torch in his wheelchair.[2]
