Footage of a true great!

Sadly no footage of his actual fights is known to exist.

That and I've read that he was just fooling around in front of the cameras. He looks really amateurish there, but if he has a win over Gene Tunney then he's a real ATG.

it still baffles my f in mind that there isn't any fight footage of him considering all those times he fought.

he looks so crappy in those videos.

what was he possibly thinking, screwing around in the only videos that exist of him

I read there were fights filmed but nobody knows what happened to them.

he looks so crappy in those videos.

Yeah how should he know that 80 years later that boxing fans on the internet were going to judge him on how he looked? Why try his best when a new device was around that he wanted to play around on? Silly him. :pat:

There actually was footage of Tunney-Greb 1 apparently, but it got burned down in the library of congress or something.

I thought only Jack Johson had those moves, fooling around or not, i've seen Jack move like that. Did they have the same trainer?

And why is this film moving in real time and yet we see these old fights that have to be ran faster just to view them supposedly?

Here's some pictures of Greb
