Your next door neighbor beat Gene Tunney, Billy Miske, Tommy Gibbons, and Bill Brennen? BTW, he beat Tunney the first time, and was robbed the second, despite being past his best.
We calling out others on likes now? Lol. It was just a completely innocent, fun thing to read in the middle of a thread where people were foaming at the mouth.
Why does it matter? That whole line of questioning feels like a setup. I respect Reznick and what he does, I get why he feels the way he feels with his film background and seemingly limitless access to HD old timers. I don't always agree with him, but can ya'll please stop antagonising one of the best creators on here? Can ya'll just shut up? If only to see HD Sam Langford or something else I never hoped to see in my entire life? Because disaster is coming and he probably gonna get banned again.
Tua is not some relentless swarmer. When he is punched he takes a second to think. When he is pressed he can and will move back. Although this is against 200lb+ men. If Greb can get his respect the fight is his.
The Ibeabuchi Tua who threw 700 plus punches over 12 is the wrongest kind of wrong for Greb. Like Frazier Foreman level wrong.
I haven't even seen the Ike fight, actually. Tua against a few of the brave nobodies he fought would sometimes take a good shot, try some head movement and think about landing a good counter. And in a few fights toward the end of his career he was pushed back and forced to fight on the backfoot. Although he looked surprisingly good doing so.
