    Now we know what you look like, your posts make a lot more sense.

    I don't usually wish for Klompton to turn up but this is an exception.

    Greb was not Malignaggi, but he was no Julian Jackson.

    That's a reasonable conclusion.

    DT, that is absolutely a reasonable conclusion.

    Walker & Greb was best friends "he would say that" yet i can show you articles which say he was a powder-puff puncher who couldn't break an egg

    You will produce ONE article that say this about him at heavyweight is my bet.

    Let's see what you've got though.

    Walker also suggested he had an after fight brawl with Greb...

    The man died early, he had the respect of his peers, thus cliche throw away lines like what Walker said, do not really that much.

    Greb no doubt, hit hard enough to get anyone's attention. But power punching clearly was not his thing.

    Quarry I hope for your sake you are somewhere between 15-25 and this attitude is just a phase you're going to grow out of.
