Tony Danza

Tony Danza, real name Antonio Salvatore Iadanza, is an award-winning actor, dancer, and sportsman. He rose to fame in the ’80s for his roles in Taxi and Who’s the Boss?. On the other hand, Tony has recorded nine knockouts and three losses as a professional boxer. Even when he now has tons of money suited for investments, Tony is still more into acting. He was recently seen in The Good Cop on Netflix.

Over the decades, Tony Danza has lived multiple lives. Once a professional boxer, he went on to become a Golden Globe and Emmy-nominated sitcom star. Then for the past quarter-century, along with his acting career, he’s been a song-and-dance man. In a phone interview with the Herald-Tribune, Danza said he turned to song and dance after nearly dying in a 1993 skiing accident that left him with a broken back, several broken ribs and a punctured lung.
