has questions post them and by next week she can answer them. Thanks again for

things will go for him. bq |

do you remember Ray Ortega from Delano, when you played Basketball for North
high stars in BAKERSFIELD?? |
|1/4/03 04:35:51 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|I spoke to Mike
yesterday and he seemed to be in good spirits and to be living his life as
always. I made no mention that I know about his illness. After all, how do you
bring a subject like this up? My feeling is he is a strong individual and like
I said, with God's help he can get through this. I live in his area and I will
help him in any way I can. It is nice to be able to give something back. Some
people ask me, "what is the big deal about the Quarrys? After all, the were just
fighters" The big deal is, the Quarrys have never acted like they are above
their fans. They are real down to earth people and this goes beyond what they
accomplished in the ring.|

CALIFORNIA||ronnyrains@yahoo.com||||10|BOXING FANS: I have something new on the
life and times of JERRY QUARRY, A bout in San Antonio TX,vs ROY CREAR,JERRY was
decked in the second round of that bout by Crear,from a left hook to the face.Of
course Quarry took out Crear the next round with a right to the jaw.Quarry was
scheduled to fight Sonny MOORE, but Flores felt MOORE'S vast experience (Texas
Champion). MIGHT HAVE BEEEN A LITTLE TOO MUCH AT THE TIME.Flores said he wasn't
necessarily ducking Moore, but maybe an main event in the same arena in the near
future,the bout took place nov.2,1965 Quarry weighed in at 190 to 185 for Roy
Crear|

at Jerry's record on this web site.It lists a fight with a Ray Crear in NOV.65
and another fight with the same guy in Dec.65.Jerry won the first time by 3rd
round KO and the second fight by 6th round.Is this the same guy? |
|1/14/03 01:28:13 PM|Steve|nj||dmmsrm@comcast.net||||10|Jimmy,I made a
mistake,Jerry won both fights by 3rd round ko,if indeed the record is correct
and they actually fought twice.|
|1/14/03 01:43:01 PM|bquarry|ca||mmmm@jj||||10|I wanted to let Mikes fans know

for two months and hopefuly that will be all he needs. Thanks for your prayers.

had a surprisngly tough time winning a 1/4 point decision over a guy named Larry
Middleton over in London. Middleton also defeated Bugner. Middleton was
American.|

fairly slick and rangy 6'5. Jerry would always have trouble with those types.
Middleton didn't have enough talent to press his stylistic advantage. I have
