[8.8] HARRY GREB 298-261(48)-17-19-1 [Light-Heavyweight & Middleweight & Welterweight] Eric Jorgensen – Jack Dempsey – Gene Tunney – Boxing News online -
Greb may have been the greatest fighter, pound-for-pound, who ever lived. Certainly, he was among the top two or three. He combined the speed of Ray Robinson, the durability of Jim Jeffries, the stamina of Henry Armstrong, and the unbridled ferocity of Stanley Ketchel with a will to win unsurpassed in the annals of sport. At his peak, he was unbeatable, defeating virtually every middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight of his generation. A great, great fighter. Eric Jorgensen, historian
The fastest fighter I ever saw. Hell, Greb is faster than Benny Leonard. Jack Dempsey
He was never in one spot for more than half a second, all my punches were aimed and timed properly but they always wound up hitting empty air. He’d jump in and out, slamming me with a left and whirling me around with his right or the other way around. My arms were plastered with leather and although I jabbed, hooked and crossed, it was like fighting an octopus. Gene Tunney
Greb gave me a terrible whipping. My jaw was swollen from the right temple down the cheek, along the chin and part way up the other side. The referee, the ring itself, was full of my blood. If boxing was afflicted with the commission doctors that we have now, the first fight probably would have been stopped and no one would have heard of me today. Gene Tunney
They just don’t make them like Harry Greb any more. Come to think of it, they probably didn’t make them like him before he came along either.
Greb was middleweight champion of the world for only two and a half years but that was towards the end of a phenomenal career.
He was the only man to beat Gene Tunney and hammered the future heavyweight champion so badly Gene admitted years later: ‘How I ever survived the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth rounds is still a mystery to me.’
The great writer Grantland Rice said: ‘Greb handled Tunney like a butcher hammering a Swiss steak.’
Gashed over both eyes and cut on the lip, with a broken nose as well, Tunney had to be half-carried to his dressing room. That was in Madison Square Garden, New York, in May 1922 – and was made for Tunney’s American light-heavyweight title. Gene had scaled 12st 6 1/2lbs, Greb only 11st 8 1/4lbs, but in his magnificent heyday Harry didn’t care a jot about little niceties like conceding a chunk of weight. Boxing News online article
