    We have a few old-timers' auto-bios available for free. If you start comparing their descriptions of their own bouts to next-day local reports, you'd be on my side as well.

    I'm not against you.I think very highly of your site and of your posts in general.

    If I had to bet I'd say Battling Nelson to outwork Griffo, possibly stop him late.
    But I wouldn't be surprised to lose my bet.

    I've never watched Griffo fight.

    Sounds like a Willie Pep type though. Maybe more like a Mike Gibbons who is just about the nicest style of boxer I can ever watch.

    I can't make an opinion on his talents without watching though.

    For shame.
