Personally I can't choose, theyre both too good, but what do you guys think, if you HAD TO choose one, which would you say is better and why?
greb for me but there are better (by far) experts and voices on the subject. just performed a bit more consistent against higher caliber (and bigger) competition throughout his career.
Greb. He fought a vast array of fighters, many of them 3-4 times to prove his superiority, whereas Langford fought the same 3-4 Heavyweights a combined total of, give or take a few, 212 times. He was the Harlem Globetrotters and they were the Washington Generals.
P4P there's no contest. Greb was a natural middleweight until the end of his career, while Langford was a 200 pounder at least as early as 1913. Sam never put together a streak like Harry's incredible 45-0-0 1919 campaign.
