* The grandson of Joe Percente, also named Joe Percente, states that Joe boxed little (if any)
after 1901; He retired from boxing at an early age because he worked in factories and toxic
conditions gave him heart problems
* Percente was advised to retire by his doctor who thought he had developed a weak heart; He
aspired to work for the local Fire Department; He ended up as a seller of newspapers
* There were two other boxers who called themselves "Joe Percente" and boxed in the midwest
from 1902-1920
