Then one bad hight spoiled the big | opportun Gibbons was matched to meet ae ry Greb at Madison Square Garden. The two had met fore and there was little to choose between them. Gibbons, however, had been making such an impressive showing that it was believed he would have no trou- ble with the much lightet Greb. The result of the meeting was quite to the contrary. Greb won as he pleased. He hit Gibbons with ev thing, and while he did great damage, Greb won by such a large margin that there was never any doubt as to the outcome. That fight spoiled the big oppor- tunity for Gibbons. Since then he has done but little fighting and it ‘hasn't been very impressive. Forget the Greb Bout. It strikes me that entirely too much stress has been laid on that fight with Greb, in which Gibbons Jost the decision on points. I saw _ the bout. Greb won by awide mar- gin, yet it is unfair to Gibbons to count him out of the running, as thus been the case, simply on the strength of that fight. «Gibbons certainly wasn’t himself that evening, while Greb was in un- usually fine form. Possibly Gibbons “was overtrained, his actions made chim look mighty stale, for he never “once w{rmed up und forced the go- ing. Greb was always out in front. =; The*n consideration should be -given to the fact that Greb is one of {the hardest fighters in the world to ‘Randle.
