Originally posted by BigStereotype View PostThere was a controversial decision for Tunney, a no contest and a whooping on either side. Gene went 2-1-0-1 (0 KO's). Hardly many times. And Greb went toe-to-toe with Dempsey in practice and supposedly got the advantage.
Tunney lost 1 fight to Greb which Tunney did well up til the 10th and I have read that Greb used dirty tactics against Tunney which resulted in many cuts on his face.
Anything more than 1 is many. The fact is Tunney beat Greb 3 times.
Tunney is a different kind of fighter from Dempsey. In a world title fight, Dempsey would absolutely kill Harry Greb.

Originally posted by BigStereotype View PostYour sparring point is taken, but Greb beat Tunney fair and square in their first fight. At least, according to the articles that I've read, which again brings me to the unreliability of newspaper articles...And Tunney only beat Greb twice. One was a no-contest, the details of which I'm not sure on. Again, hardly a one-sided rivalry, although I've heard that their third fight was a real thrashing. But their second fight, many believed that Greb deserved the nod. Any way you slice it, he showed that he could rumble with a legitimate all-time great heavyweight. Dempsey is probably a bad matchup because he'd just outmuscle and out**** Greb. I'll give you that.
