LOL, you've been on an anti-Greb tear today, man. Since virtually no living man has ever seen him fight, I'm gonna go with Tyson.
No Tyson was not better then Dempsey. The storiesof Greb vs Dempsey sparring are vastly exxagerated. Dempsey would have literally kicked the **** into Greb in a real fight. Who says Greb smacked Dempsey like a *****? The reports also say Dempsey was not putting anywehere near his power in his punches because it was sparring, otherwise Greb could never survive Dempsey. And Greb knew it
Dempsey, while not as big as Tyson, was however equal in terms of explosiveness with far more heart. Dempsey would come at Greb, and no Harry is not lucky because this is not sparring. Dempsey was one of the very best punchers in the history of heavyweight division and Greb never fought anyone like that. Dempsey would rip his head off
actually Dempsey was just as quick, actually he was lighter on his toes. Tyson may be stronger physically but that's about it. "Pananma" Joe Gans, another middleweight is said to have gotten the better out of Dempsey in sparring. Oh God Gans would have beaten Dempsey. Hagler, Monzon and Robinson would have done the same topo
But Panama Joe Gans, a middle who never beat A Tunney, beat Dempsey in sparring, so using that logic any good middleweight could
