Just say that Baer and Braddock had no technique and then we'll understand how they both got outclassed by a guy that was outboxed By Greb.Last edited by res; 02-26-2009, 06:01 PM.

baer and braddock had no technique
baer was crap, he could punch but that was it
he barely trained and even had a radio show while he was champ lol
braddock was a solid but not great fighter who made the most of his chance to topple a very complacent and lazy champion in baer

All of these guys are from approximately the same era.

i know he accomplished a lot but i think thats due to his contemporaries being very limited themselves
i dont think he became some sort of juggernaut once he got into the ring...thats his boxing style right there, and he looks like a mental patient swinging his arms about rabidly
honestly i think the 30's/40's was the turning point for boxing as far as skills went, when guys robinson, louis, walcott, charles etc came along, guys with excellent form and ability
the guys before that were pretty awful skill wise

LMAO at the people trying to justify Harry greb being so sloppy, Ive honestly seen amateurs still in school with better techique than this guy.
Yes, he paved the way for fighters such as Joe Louis and Jersey joe Walcott but to say Greb or any other one of these old time fighters are as good as fighters today is ridiculous.
Bias to old timers never ceases to amaze me honestly

i suggest you actually watch Joe Calzaghe's fights especially against kessler and Jones
Tremendous technique, adaptability and handspeed
You're an idiot
Hope this helps
