    Greb’s hands were so fast we couldn’t see them.

    You don’t know what his hand and foot speed was like as there’s no film of him, so therefore you don’t know.

    There's sparring footage of him, and even though he's fooling around, you can still get an idea of what it was like.

    I never said any of that, you ******. I said that it will take a while for Foreman to get Roy, that he needs Roy to get tired.
    And SRR is the GOAT, I simply said he's not from the same era as Greb. SRR is miles above Greb.

    No he ain't. Greb would get beaten to a pulp by guys like Hagler, RJJ, Toney, Canelo etc.

    Greb might have been the best of his era, he doesn't stand a chance against a modern boxer.

    Tunney is a joke compared to them.

    They don't need to be, they still beat him to a pulp.

    Tyson was not prepared vs Douglas and Douglas was no bum. He beats everyone in the 10s and 20s, and quite easy.
    Tyson was shot vs Williams and he clearly beat Tillis and Golota.

    Only in your delusional mind. Are you somehow the moron SerbianLoudMouth ?!?

    You're so stupid that you cannot even lie properly. Do tell me who lived long enough to see both Greb and Calzaghe.

    Only in your dreams.

    STFU with your nonsense. Tunney is not on Moore and Charles's level.

    And pigs fly.

    Isn't there a fair amount of footage of the guys Greb is on record, as having beaten?

    And, if so, does this not provide, at least, some measure of how good Greb was, outside of the written descriptions of him?

    This fight would go down exactly as when SRR fought Willie Pep in the barn

    Mayweather wouldn't go in a Walmart if he thought Harry Greb was in there , much less get into a ring with him. He'd have as much chance beating Greb as he'd have in beating Hagler....ZERO.

    I think that its possible to acknowledge Mayweather's greatness while still realising that Greb is not only a horrible stylistic matchup for him, but that he's also much bigger. This fantasy matchup is straight up unfair to Floyd. As Floyd Snr said "my son ain't fighting no damn giant"

    I’m pretty sure Mayweather doesn’t shop at Walmart.

    Greb was about the size of Canelo.
