Cosimo Pinto (born 14 March 1943) is an Italian retired Amateur boxer who won a gold medal at the 1964 Summer Olympics.
[1] Contrary to most of his teammates he remained an amateur and won a bronze medal at the 1967 European championships.
A year into his career, in 1963 Pinto won the gold medal at the Mediterranean Games in his home country and a few months later he travelled to Tokyo and won the Pre-Olympic tournament via knockout over Tadayuki Maruyama.
The following year in the Olympics, Pinto had a fairly easy path to the final but then faced Aleksei Kiselyov, who proved he was a tough adversary in the preliminary bouts.
