I due assi del guantone

I due assi del guantone (Italian for "The two aces of boxing") is a 1971 comedy film directed by Mariano Laurenti and starring the comic duo Franco and Ciccio.[1][2][3]

Franco and Ciccio are two Sicilians who seek fortune in Rome. They are hired as kitchen boys in the restaurant of Amleto Rossetti, who happens to be a passionate boxing fan. In order to take advantage of the latter's wealth, Franco pretends to be a boxing champion.

An Italian review of the time finds the film 'poor in ideas, carelessly directed and relying merely on the repertoire of jokes and funny faces of the comic duet'.[4]
