On Saturday, March 29, 2025, boxer Anthony “The Italian Gladiator” Patanella will step into the international spotlight as his first professional fight streams worldwide via Millions.co PPV. In La Gran Velada Boxixtika 6.0: The Rise of the Italian Gladiator, Patanella will battle rising Colombian boxer Jean Carlos Boneo at the Noel Cogollo Coliseum in Córdoba, Colombia.
Patanella is an Italian/American social media influencer, Light Heavyweight Champion, and Cruiserweight Champion. He is also a dedicated philanthropist, actively supporting charities such as Children of the Fallen Soldiers. Patanella has battled mental health challenges and fought relentlessly for his dream of becoming a professional boxer since 2010. Despite countless setbacks, broken promises from promoters, and years of being told “no,” his persistence and determination never wavered. Inspired by legendary Italian-American fighters like Rocky Marciano, Jake LaMotta, and Vinny Paz (a close friend), Patanella refused to give up until he could officially turn pro.
Patanella also reflects on the tragic loss of Cheslie Kryst, former Miss USA and Extra correspondent, whom he met in 2019. Kryst, an accomplished athlete and lawyer, battled mental health issues and tragically passed away in January 2022. Her mother, April, founded the Cheslie Kryst Foundation in her memory, and Kryst’s posthumous book, By the Time You Read This, shares her journey and struggles.
Through the ups and downs, including injuries, two car accidents, and a life-threatening incident where he was struck by a Grey Goose Vodka bottle in a NYC nightclub, Patanella’s resilience has been unwavering. He is deeply grateful to his sponsors, fans, friends, and family for their unwavering support, especially during these challenging moments.
Confident in his preparation and abilities, Patanella is already eyeing the future. After his anticipated victory in Colombia, he hopes to negotiate a real fight or exhibition bout with boxing legend Floyd “Money” Mayweather, aiming to create a modern-day Apollo Creed versus Rocky Balboa moment.
While Patanella and Boneo headline the card, La Gran Velada Boxixtika 6.0 will feature a lineup of exciting matchups showcasing regional boxing talent. The main event will consist of an electrifying four-round match, where victory can only be secured through a TKO, knockout, or by decision.
