January 2002 - March 2004 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

was my only idol growing up in the late '60s and '70s. I remember listening to
his late night fights from the west coast, or staying up late waiting for
results. His passing hit me really hard. I truly regret not meeting him. This
man gave it his all in this brutal sport, he left a piece of himself in each one
of those 66 fights for the entertainment of the public. Why do bad things
happen to good people. He's truly a warrior who didnt deserve such a fate. A
cruel ending to this remarkable person. May God Bless you Jerry. |

8. Charles over Ellis by decision.|
|4/23/02 05:00:20 AM|Paul|Sydney, Australia||PlMls4@aol.com.au||||10|Ali (apart
from that last fight) would always be way too strong for Berbick. Probably a
TKO early, I'd say round 5. Ellis is better than history records, but Charles
too tough for him. The Charles before the Marciano fight would win convincingly
by TKO, while the Charles after Rocky might beat Ellis on points. |
|4/23/02 01:09:36 PM|steve|nj||dmmsrm@comcast.net||||10|In their primes,Ali
overwhelms Berbeck in 4 or 5 rounds.I agree with Paul,Jimmy Ellis had some
attributes that aren't mentioned very often.He had very fast hands,excellent
ring movement,and a powerful,sneaky right hand.I still see Charles as a better
fighter overall.Charles wins a 15 round decision.|
|4/23/02 01:58:00 PM|Evren|London||@||||10|Okay Ali and Charles are through
unanimously. next round...Lennox Lewis meets the rabbit Floyd Patterson. In the
second match Hasim Rahman meets Iron Mike Tyson.|
|4/24/02 01:36:38 PM|Joe Krause|Chicago||sadmspats@yahoo.com||||10|Lennox is way
too big and strong and would land in the 3rd round and Floyd would fall. Tyson
in his prime would knock the slow moving plodding Rahman out pretty early.
Lets's say round 4.|
|4/25/02 05:04:05 AM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|Yes, Lewis
over Patterson and Tyson over Rahman; both by knockout before the fifth round.
|
|4/25/02 06:30:56 AM|ev|London||@||||10|Patterson gives Lewis some problems with
his movement and speed but eventually gets battered along the ropes mid way
through the seventh round though the fight was quite close at that point. The
Tyson - Rahman bout is a real war with Rahman trying to outmuscle Tyson but soon
realises that Mike was'nt just about speed - he was speed and dynamic and he
crushes Rahman a la the way he destroyed Bruno in '96. Tyson by 3 round ko.|
|4/25/02 09:22:12 PM|Bob Bumbera|NC||renfbera@aol.com||||10|Lewis TKO's
Patterson in 4. Lewis at 6-5 237 is too big and strong for the 6-0 194
Patterson. Floyd lands some good body shots, but goes down 5 times in 4 rounds
before the Ref stops it. Tyson crushed the slow moving Rahman in 3 rounds.
Rahman keept Mike off him in the first round, but is hurt by body shots. The
second goes much the same. In the middle of the third, Tyson lands his classic
uppercut,two quick hooks to the body, then a right forearm puts "The Rock" in a
coma. |

matchup of lewis vs patterson strenthens my argument for a superheavywieght
div.,starting at 225lbs.patterson was a great fighter,for his size.he beat most
of the top ten guys of his era,but he has no chance against monsters like
lewis.the fact that maskeiv was beating up on simon and knocked out rahman only
attests to the larger man's mediocrity.as dennis miller says'"that's just my
opinion,i could be wrong." anyway,lewis by tko in 3.tyson walks through rahman
in 3. |
|4/26/02 02:10:01 PM|Evren|London||@||||10|Well good turn out guys. Lewis and
Tyson definitely through. Next Round - Jerry Quarry meets Jimmy Young (good
match). Second match - Carl Williams meets Roland La Starza.|

make a good point about smaller verses bigger except for one thing. Patterson
