Harry Greb's complete record vs. IBHOF members

Post by chrisjs1985 »

Has anyone done the numbers on this and worked out his total record vs. fellow IBHOF members? I believe he defeated 12 or 13 members of the IBHOF for roughly 30 wins if we count newspaper decisions (which we should).

I just did a rough go through and it looks like it's something like 27-10-1.

Klomptos book is the best resource on Greb. When I read it I knew everything about Harry until my life pushed most of it out of my brain. Great book.

What's Klompton's name again and what is the book? He wrote an excellent piece on Jeff Merritt not long ago.

Stephen Compton. This is the book.

I think it's a must read.
