KEY POINTS:
Italy provided a knockout finish to the world boxing championships when heavyweight Clemente Russo and super-heavyweight Roberto Cammarelle scored upset wins to steal the spotlight from Russia.
Russian boxers left with a tournament best three gold medals but missed an opportunity of a record haul, settling for silvers in three other weight classes.
It had been 16 years since Tommaso Russo won Italy's only world championship gold medal, the unrelated Clemente Russo ending the drought with a narrow 7-6 decision over Russia's Rakhim Chakhkeiv.
He was followed into the ring by Cammarelle, who tamed Ukraine's Vyacheslav Glazkov 24-14 to give Italy two gold medals in 15 minutes.
