Bit off topic but his whole thing has me thinking about boxing itself. Think about it..who among us can actually touch the sport prior to the 60's or 50's? Everything is edited film footage, newspaper articles in random press from generation to generation, record books and historians. We once actually praised and valued learning 'history'. Harry Greb..was he even a real boxer
. Raise your hand if you've actually seen fight footage? Any snippet of fight footage
. Yet he's a great. And who trusts the old fight films prior to our first hand experiences. This is why so many act like boxing started on their day of birth maybe
