      He actually doesn't have the most wins in boxing history but he may have had the greatest resume.

            What hasn't been mentioned here yet is that he died suddenly after a routine operation at age 32. You can only imagine what his record might have been if he had lived longer.

              True.

              Young Stribling deserves a mention here, he fought 290 times, won 257 (128 by KO), lost 15 and died at 28 years of age.

                    While I do think Greb is one of the true greats and extremely tough to have fought so many fights, the footage I've seen of him proves to me how much boxing has evolved.

                    He did beat Gene Tunney though who seemed ahead of his time in the footage I've seen of him.
