== Other Factoids ==<br />
*On December 1, 1984, Page became the WBA heavyweight champion with an [[Gerrie Coetzee vs. Greg Page|8th round knockout]] victory over [[Gerrie Coetzee]] in Sun City, South Africa. He would lose that title five months later, dropping a [[Greg Page vs. Tony Tubbs |15 round unanimous decision]] to [[Tony Tubbs]] in Buffalo, New York.<br />
*On March 9, 2001, in Erlanger, Kentucky, Page was knocked out in the tenth round by [[Dale Crowe]]. He suffered a traumatic brain injury and a massive stroke, which resulted in permanent paralysis to the left side of his body, which left Page in a wheelchair for the restof his life. The [[Kentucky Athletic Commission]] came under extreme criticism for having insufficient ringside medical assistance and no ambulance on site. Reports stated that Page was down for 45 minutes before finally being taken to the hospital. Crowe organized fundraisers for Page, and the two remained friends for the rest of Page's life. Page even attended one of Crowe's bouts in 2002. [http://stupidcelebrities.net/2009/04/27/former-heavyweight-boxer-greg-page-dies-at-50-photos/]<br />
*Page's wife Patricia claimed his death on April 26, 2009, was a direct complication of injuries Page suffered in the Crowe bout<br />
*He once knocked down [[Mike Tyson]] in sparring (before the [[Mike Tyson vs. James (Buster) Douglas|Tyson-Douglas fight]]).<br />
