January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

fight with Frazier as he knew he would be fighting Ali and he didn't want to
jeapordize it. I am not sure if Frazier/Lyle was ever in the works but Lyle
being the one not wanting the fight is in the realm of possibilities, especially
after seeing how Frazier beat up Quarry, a fighter Lyle had lost to just about a
year before. |

wouldn't get into the ring with anyone at my advanced age.Well,maybe if the
money was right,maybe a 35 year old girl,who weighs in at a strapping 115
lb.Only if she fought Frazier first.Oh,it would have to be mud
wrestling.Otherwise, I'd punch her right in the chest area.|

somewhere grinding her teeth together. |
|3/18/05 08:21:06 PM|Steve |N.J||na||||10|Hey Noam,I strongly resent your vieled
implication that Frazier was ducking Anna Nicole Smith.Remember,Frazier easily
KO'D,Ron Stander,who fought a disputed draw against Mz.Smith.|
|3/18/05 08:41:39 PM|Steve |NJ||NA||||10|Frazier ducking these guys for whatever
reason is a moot point.It didnt happen!Now,for whatever it's worth,which I know
ain't much.Lyle was too slow of hand and foot,It would have been a replay of
Jerry Quarry vs Frasier.Shavers couldn't handle a pressure fighter,he did well
against boxers who where leery of his punch.Norton,ah,Norton.I read somewhere
that Frasier beat up on Norton on a regular basis in the Philly gym wars.I also
read that Jerry Quarry knocked out Norton in a sparring session.It might be
hearsay, but its better than the opinions you guys have,which are based on
nothing. |
|3/18/05 09:37:47 PM|Steve|N.J||NA||||10|Here's a thought just thrown out
there.How would Ali have down against Forman in a rematch withen say,six months
of their first fight?In, Let's say,Madison Square Garden?|
|3/19/05 01:12:06 AM|Kent|La Habra, ca||same||||10|Steve, Ali likely would have
wanted a venue in a hot climate because George literally couldn't take the heat.
The talk of a fix makes no sense in Zaire as I believe somehow Ali knew
Foreman's stanima would be even less in that hot climate and true to form
Foreman wilted in the 80+ degree heat even at four o'clock in the
morning.That Foreman was supceptible to heat can be seen by Jimmy
Young's win over Foreman in Puerto Rico on a very hot day where the heat as much
as Young himself did Foreman in. Foreman's vision of seeing God in his dressing
room after the fight was explained by heat exhaustion. Foreman could have very
well seen the all mighty as the Lord moves in mysterious ways but the heat
didn't help George any. I believe Foreman would have had a much better
chance of winning a rematch if it were held in Madison Square Garden.|

answer to your last question is: DOWN GOES ALI',DOWN GOES ALI', DOWN GOES ALI',
THE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION IS HELPLESS WHILE FOREMAN IS HITTING HIM WITH HUGE
SHOTS !!!!! All jokes apart, I'm not sure how this fight would have gone, it's
hard to say. Ali' fought one of his greatest fights in Kinshasa, he went toe to
toe for 7 round with "Small" George Foreman and then knocked him out in eight,
to show he was great !Did Foreman see God after the Young fight ? Oh really
? Interesting ! How wilt is He ? I see the Madonna every day. She's as wilt as
Kent's friend from Boston. She is pretty wilt for a woman !|

you're like a one legged duck waddling around in circles with your defense of
Frazier. That second Ellis fight was a post mortem that Joe was trying to pass
off as a contest. He had to take it to the other side of the planet to fool
people into buying tickets for it.Foreman certainly had more room for
improvement than Ali did after that first fight. If Foreman wised up and got
away from the hot, humid conditions for the second fight, then I think he
probably beats Ali. Ali wouldn't have got as pumped and motivated for
the second fight, while Foreman would have been given the humilating loss.
