Notes

Newspaper win for Greb according to the Pittsburgh Post. "For five rounds Greb did everything to Gorgas that was possible without having a manslaughter charge against him." In the 5th round, Gorgas screamed "foul" after taking a left coming out of a clinch. His seconds took up the cry. One of them, a fellow named Malone, hit Greb, which started a ruckus that the police had to stop. The sixth round was then fought, Greb winning it by a wide margin
