    Once, after Harry missed a right to my face, he spun all the way around so that his back faced me. I relaxed my guard and waited for him to turn around. But before I knew what was happening, his left was stuck in my mouth.


    lol what??a spinning back fist?

      definitely top 3 for me based on resume
      6:00 I cried laughing, from his record you would have to say that he was one of the best from his time but from what you see you'd think you could kick his ass yourself... He was probably a tremendous fighter for his time but as boxing evolved it would be hard to believe he would be a force today?
      It's funny how people believe what they read about this guy and claim it has to be 100% true
      Then they read the bible and claim that it's bull**** maybe I can find some sparring footage of Jesus.

          Yeah maybe the slave trade didn't happen as well because we have no video footage of that.

          You think the newspaper articles the result of his fights and the great fighters of his time that complimented him were all faked as well.

          There is footage of many of the top fighters he has beaten and their class is evident.

            because comparing jesus to greb make sense.



            the fact that some of you need footage in HD to gauge an opinion is says all that needs to be said about you.

            he wouldn't have be a force today?


            becuase the farther along in time we go, the better boxing is overall?

            what a laughable assumption.

            a set of brothers dominate a lackluster division who's ability as a whole pales in comparison to the heavy's of 40 years ago.

            but boxing is evolved.

            hearns, duran, hagler and ray leonard's hayday was 30 years ago. put them in their prime in this era and they wipe their asses with floyd, cotto, martinez and pacquiao.

            but boxing is evolved.



            **** outta here.

              And that's the game changer.

              If they was no footage of anyone from that era then I would understand.

              But, there is plenty of footage of the great fighters he beat.

              Not one off's, lucky wins. Consistent victories over great fighters.

Resume can't be the only means of ranking, one has to analyze that fighter's skill or whether he dominated or not and I'm not talking scorecards.
                It's been reiterated in this very thread alone multiple times.

                He is "sparring" a friend there. Philidelphia Jack O'Brien. Who happens to be very old.
