    your so sad. what happened to your spiderman poster and your Thomas the Tank Engine. you even posted a picture of a lion the other day insinuating it was Lewis.. yet remember the documentary shown on BBC TV the night of Lewis v Rahman (1) when Lewis was sparring with Jeremy Williams. Williams decked Lewis a couple of times with judo throws and the Lewis camp got rid of him. but Williams said," i have been in camp with Riddick Bowe and Bowe would murder this guy he is nothing but a ***** cat compared to Bowe".... so your lion is really nothing but a ***** cat. i can never recall Lewis ever resembling a lion

    Not that I can see. Everything I've seen has McGrain taking you to school and spanking your little bottom.

    Like i said, "This has ruffled a good few feathers and spoiled many agenda's" but it is an excellent thread which should have been addressed by the so-called experts of the forum. yet i knew it would expose those with agendas of pumping their fav fighter all day long.

    Subject: THE MEN HARRY GREB DEFEATED
    This content is protected
    Wed Aug 25, 2010 2:20 amIn no order

    Jack Blackburn-Famous as Joe Louis' trainer. Historian Charlie Rose named him the #3 lightweight of all time.

    Al McCoy-One time undisputed middleweight champ.

    George Chip-One time undisputed middleweight champ.

    Jack Dillon-One time undisputed light heavy king. Nat Fleischer had him as #3 light heavy of all time. Charley Rose had him #2.

    Battling Levinsky-One time undisputed light heavy king. Fleischer had him #6 LHW of all time.

    Mike McTigue-One time undisputed LHW king. Rose ranked him #10 all-time.

    Billy Miske-HOF heavyweight who challenged Dempsey for title.

    Bill Brennan-Challenged Dempsey for heavyweight crown.

    Mike Gibbons-#4 ranked middle all-time by Rose, #9 by Fleischer.

    Tommy Gibbons-#5 LHW by Rose, #8 by Fleischer.

    Kid Norfolk-HOF light heavyweight

    Bob Moha-One time LHW champ.

    Gene Tunney-One time heavyweight champ. Herb Goldman ranks him #1 all-time LHW.

    Tommy Loughran-One time LHW champ. Fleischer ranks him #4, Rose #4 light heavy.

    Johnny Wilson-Reigning middleweight champion.

    Tiger Flowers-One time middleweight champ. Rose ranks him #5, Goldman #12.

    Mickey Walker-One time welter and middle champ. Rose ranks him #3 middle, Fleischer #4 and Goldman #4.

    Maxie Rosenbloom-One time undisputed light heavy champ.


    There are 19 men on this list who were, in a time of eight divisions and one belt per, champions, or, highly rated by historians or HOFers. In almost all cases it is at least 2 of 3.

    Harry Greb defeated these men a total of 40 times.

    Ring ratings began in 1924. From 1924 until his 1926 retirement, Greb defeated another eight ranked men who were not on the above list.

    Seriously, is the lack of film all that important?


    Most important are the voices that you hear in your head.

    yes your correct.. if this thread had been addressed in the correct way it would mean that Lewis & Greb could not be ranked anywhere near as high as they are on this forum. so those nut huggers of Lewis & Greb who pounce on every single topic to pump up their agenda for their idol have sabotaged the thread in an attempt to take away the threat topic of discusion so that they remain in the driving seat
