mickey walker v harry greb report by nat fleischer

Sheer emotion & frustration,

like a Duran v SRL fight and such fights where dislike and wanting to really kill the other guy are the emotions and they are alive and fully felt and visible.

 

Excellent stuff. Someone please find this film.

 

Thanks for the post!:good

 

Su-weet.

 

Loved it, keep posting these gems.

 

Nat could sure put a boxing story together when he was on, its one of the reasons the Ring is in its ninth decade.

 

Article says fight was broadcast on radio (tapes?). Also, states
Greb broke his hand. Isn't there a post-fight photo of Greb with a taped hand?

 

A real gem! Thanks Doug:good

 

He was probably told he needed a KO to win

 

Wow never read that.. sounds like Greb really put this great little fighter through the mill.. physically & mentally .. but Mickey never gave up .. if only we had some film of it.. two P4P ATGs going at it..

 

The two best P4P fighters who ever shared the same ring?

 

Nat didn’t even cover their second fight on the street after the one in the ring. SMH.

 

Wasn’t that a hoax? I heard that Walker was in the hospital whereas Greb was out partying that night, IIRC Jimmy Slattery was with Greb and found it bizarre that Mickey would lie about that.
