Notes

Newspaper decision for Greb according to Pittsburgh Post and other sources. Greb reported to have won every round. He belabored the Chilean with left hooks to head and body. Rojas did land some good punches, especially in round three and nine. Greb's busy milling style simply bewildered Rojas. Sam Greene in the Detroit News said "Despite its one-sidedness, the bout did not lack in interest. Romero-Rojas saw to it that Greb did not loaf and he gave the impression that his a fair heayvweight. Against Greb he was confused by the flying gloves, but against a man of his own weight and speed he would be formidable." This fight was decided by official decision. Referee Emerson W. DIckerson raised Greb's hand without waiting for the written slips of the judges. He later said that he was under the impression "that the bout ws to a referee's decision solely. It made no difference. Greb's marging was safe."
