  • Notes

    Rick Ricketson in the Denver Post said that Greb won the referee's decision. "Greb is all his advance-advertising indicated. He steps about more like a bantam than a light-heavyweight. His left is up and down, side and straight, always in action, and his right shoots like a piston. Against Brown, Greb was never in danger. The Greek rallied strong and often, but Harry's superiority was marked. Brown showed best at infighting, although Greb held his own, even at this style of battle. One round might be said to be a repitition (sic) of every other. Brown was aggressive, rushed and swung, and in return Greb countered, ducked, jabbed and popped..True, the Greek never had a round with the cleverer and headier miller from Smokey City. But he forced Greb to step.."
