    Hi Buddy.
    Good choice of paring these two, of course both can be labeled " badass " for the many feats and fights, taking on much bigger men, given that all boxers are fearless to a degree, they are the mount rushmore of the species, where there is a distinction for me, is that we have had big punchers over the decades, also great boxers as well, there has never been, and will properly never be, another fighter like Greb, since I have been a member I have seen him described as mainly an aggressive fighter, which he was , when he chose to, but he would combine this with cat like reflexes, where by he would lather an opponent with dozens of punches, head and body, also arms, in fact any part of his anatomy, as Ted Moore said " he came at you like a tornado arms flying all over the place, you had no option but to defend yourself, it was as if someone had opened a ceiling and hundreds of boxing gloves fell down on you, then when he had finished, he would glide away, quick as a flash, so your punches would hit thin air, it was almost impossible to land a clean shot on Greb" nuff said.

    On the flipside, Greb managed to cram a comparable number of fights into a career that was half as long.
