    It's not really known if that was Greb messing around with Jack O'Brian on the cameras on not, but if it was his actual fighting stance and he fought like that all the time...

    Harry Greb by far.

      Pedroza-Laporte is the biggest assault on a boxer's nuts this side of Bowe-Golota.

      It wasn't limited to that though. Pedroza also launched a full-scale assault on Laporte's back, and his Laporte's cheek with his elbow.

        Harry Greb, Middleweight champion 1922-1926 was one of the greatest pound for poudn fighters of all time.


        It's sad that there isn't any footage of his fights.

        The old timers describe Greb as one of the fastest, toughest and most well-conditioned fighters ever.

        I don't think there is any other film of Greb out there except these three from his training camp.







        If Greb fought like he sparred/shadow boxed, then he was truly be one of the most unique fighters ever... You just never know because you can't watch him in action.

        Gene Tunney was in my opinion one of the more intelligent and modern style of fighters back in the 1920's and Greb was the only one to beat him.
        Tunney praised Greb's skills so he had to be pretty good, unique style or not.
