How Techniaclly Skilled was Harry Greb?

The establishment was called "The Fight Bar"

 

I think our pal Klompton has given good enough reason as to why this view, sadly, is most likely not the case.

 

klompton is a good cat and knows his ****, i haven't read his opinion but i do hope he's wrong here

 

he would have been smashed by les darcy if he never died as would have dempsey les darcy greatest p4p in the history of the universe

 

no point all parties are deceased

 

Given the respective descriptions of their styles, I have always been somewhat inclined to think of Greb as a larger light hitting Wilde. They are both described as throwing non stop, relying on head movement for defense, and keeping a low guard. Any thoughts on this idea?

 

I've never heard of Wilde as being described as such, nor have I seen the footage to back up that assessment. Wilde seemed more a drawing/counter type money puncher. Nothing like Greb at all, to be frank.

 

I suppose he is, I have only seen that description once anyway. I believe it was part of Burt Sugars description in 100 greatest boxers perhaps. Or maybe it was somewhere totally different. The footage I have access too (youtube) certainly doesn't look that way you are right.

 

Therein lies your folly.

 

hehe, I suppose so. Still making mistakes is part of learning.

 

No problem, bruh. I was taking a stab more at Sugar than you.:good

 

I got that actually, but I will remember more in the future. I should already know to be careful of sources.
