  • Harry Greb vs Maxie Rosembloom

    Cleveland Times July 17 1925 Dan Taylor

    Greb did practicably no fighting at all in the first round and because Rosenbloom landed a couplla stiff rights and lefts to Harrys chin we gave the period to Maxie.
    But that was the last he won.
    Greb really didn't get under way until late in the third round and after shaking Rosenbloom up with a viscous left to the stomach tore into him and battered him all over the ring.
    The forth was a rather tame affair with Greb landing the only blows of the period then after referee Johnny McGuire warned them to begin fighting in the fifth Greb staggered Rosenbloom with a right uppercut and battered Maxie the rest of the round punching him at will. Greb started fast in the sixth again and after staggering his foe with an overhand right backed him into a neutral corner with a viscous left uppercut to the stomach then shot over another hard right to the point of the chin and Rosenbloom dropped. He remained down for the count of seven and Greb swarmed all over him as he arose but Maxie managed to weather the storm without going down again. From that period until the end Rosenbollm never had a chance and Greb punished him severely in the remaining rounds.
