    Two of the greatest middleweights to ever grace the division.

    Notorious wind-mill versus speed, and calculated power?

    Who wins this bout and why? B)

    Greb mauls him and outworks him to a UD. Ray's power shots simply bounce off or miss.

    How many Greb fights are available on film?

    I've read that none were filmed.

    All I've seen of Greb is him goofing around in training.

    There aren't any films of Greb's fights that anyone knows about.

    I only read about Greb. He has this Rickson Gracie type record with almost 300 wins. I saw a video of him punching in this video during training, he had the old school way of holding his hands up.

    Rickson Gracie has a shitty record - a bunch of nobodies. Harry Greb beat half a dozen World Light Heavyweight Champions and a World Heavyweight Champion, and he was a middleweight.

    I'm talking about Rickson's claimed record.

    But even then, his confirmed MMA record isn't shitty. He's undefeated and beat Funaki, can you beat Funaki? :nixweiss:

    I used to have his fight against Mickey Walker on DVD but I traded it for a good-quality copy of Bruce Seldon - Joe Hipp. I never get tired of that fight
