    Yeah when the whole article was posted here a while ago, a lot of posters who are knowledgeable on old time boxing writers said the man who wrote that Greb asked for Tunney not to stop him was a known liar.

    I don't know myself, just letting know what i heard then

    Lets follow Mendoza's lead and check the neutral paps on Greb Tunney 2.

    4 From Brooklyn
    1 From Staten Island
    3 From Jersey City
    3 From Newark

    All 11 of them say Greb was robbed!!
    Great quote from one of em sez,

    "heard a guy on the train back to Newark say-
    "I bet on Gene, but I told the guy I can't collect on that decision"

    P.S. Why are so many here so impressed Gene beat Harry 5th time around??
    Howbout, only a middleweight-31 years old vs a guy who makes everyones top 10 all time heavyweight-100dred of fights-countless car wreckes-blind in one eye-fighting with his head tillted sideways in order to see-fighting a prime Gene Tunney fer chrissessakes!!

    Howzabout giving us Greb guys a break!!??

    I'll give you a break .
    I think Greb is the number 1 Middleweight and in the top 4 p4p,arguably number 1! How's that?
