Re: Jack Gross
That's pretty cool . . .Gross is one of the few fighters to hold a non-DQ win over HOF'er George Godfrey, albeit when Godfrey was out of shape. Your grand-dad also beat top black heavyweights Ace Clark and Seal Harris, and lost a razor thin battle with Tommy Loughran who was down twice in their bout.
