Harry Greb is ranked so high but Tunney beat him several times and went was it 3-1-1 with him?
There is actual footage of Tunney who was very skilled
He went 80-1 & beat Greb multiple times, Dempsey, destroyed Gibbons, Carpentier, etc
Why is he ranked so poorly? I mean I know hes ranked high but surely he should rank higher? I mean for me Marciano beat a load of old fogies, would he of beaten Tunney? From tape alone I have to doubt it. Is his record as impressive as Tunneys?
Sure Greb might rank higher due to his record but didn't Tunney clatter him multiple times then retire? Do people play too much on Grebs longevity?
Why is Tunney ranked so low, genuine question as my boxing history knowledge is quite poor but I consider Tunney an exceptional fighter who may not get is due really.
Thanks in advance. I'd love to know more about Gene Tunney, hes one of the early pioneers I can truly appreciate
