Notes
"According to the sport writers every round was Greb's, who gave fifteen and one-half pounds to Walker." (Indianpolis Star) Walker reported as Hughey Walker-Kansas City. The Pittsburgh Post said that a booming right nearly floored Greb in the first round. Walker won that round but Harry took the other nine. He smothered Walker in a hail of blows, outfought him on the inside, and cut and bruised him. Walker kept trying and made it an interesting fight, but he was too slow to give Greb much trouble.
