January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

Quarry!Rock's gonna win the stamina factor for sure.Marciano's UNDEFEATED
RECORD. Is nothing short of amazing.Gil Clancy stated JERRY WAS THE HARDEST
PUNCHER HE EVER TRAINED.And had trouble keeping sparring partner's.It would be
one of the very few (if only)matches,Where Quarry would have every advantage
physically,height reach,weight,speed etc.Frazier or QUARRY, would have been
ROCKY'S toughest bouts.If you look on his record.|
|3/10/04 01:57:37 PM|John Gerard|NYC||rock289z@yahoo.com||||10|JIMMY DORSEY: The
story about Marciano being intimated by Liston before interviewing him started
was originally told by Howard Cosell. Cosell naturally made himself the hero of
the story and wrote how unafraid of Liston he was and how scared Rocky was. So
take the story with a grain of salt. A major one. Regarding JQ vs. Marciano.
Jerry was a very, very good, game figher. A real warrior. Let's leave it at
that.|
|3/10/04 03:55:32 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||kentallenent@aol.com||||10|I would give
JQ a real shot at beating Marciano because of like I said, Rocky threw wide
looping punches as he moved in and Jerry could have avoided and countered these.
Finding a way to keep Rocky from working from in close is the key which means
also Jerry would have to avoid the urge to slug it out with Rocky, which
sometimes Jerry did when tagged hard. Could Jerry had done that, I don't know
for sure but I do know Jersey Joe Walcott did that for nearly thirteen rounds
and if he had somehow not ran into the tremedous knockout punch near the end of
round thirteen, a short right hand delivered from in close, Rocky would not have
retired undefeated as he would not have even won the title that night, although
Rocky likely would have won the title at some point. Walcott, up until the
final devastating punch, had avoided a lot of Rocky's wide, looping punches as
Rocky moved in and he effectively countered Rocky's punches almost all night
long. |

probably would stop Jerry on cuts. If Jerry could avoid serious cuts/bleeding,
he could beat Marciano, but that's a huge "if." I don't think the Rock could KO
Jerry or outpoint him. Plain and simple, I think he would have to win by TKO
and I think he WOULD win by middle round TKO. This was part of Jerry's career.
If not for the cut factor, Jerry would have retired with a better record. |

Quarry's career and his induction into the Calfornia Boxing Hall of Fame. I
hope you folks read my article. It should be up on the Eastside homepage for up

JIMMY, WHAT GIL CLANCY SAYS MEANS NOTHING , I'VE HEARD HIM SAY SOME OF THE MOST
STUPID THINGS I'VE EVER HEARD, I'M VERY SURPRISED HE MADE IT AS A TRAINER,
JIMMY, JERRY HIT HARD, BUT DO YOU REALLY THINK HE HIT HARDER THAN FOREMAN??
THATS NON-SENSE, JIMMY HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING AGAIN??? |
|3/11/04 01:24:41 AM|Ed|Cicero n y||mooseygoop@aol.com||||10|Its too bad Rocky
didn't fight Floyd Patterson for his finale, we'd have a common opponent to
compare each other to. |
|3/11/04 01:40:28 AM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||Kentallenent@aol.com||||10|Patterson
would have been a good test for Rocky because his quickness would have caused
problems for Rocky. Patterson would have to stay away from Rocky because if he
stayed in front of Rocky, Patterson's chin would not have stood up to Rocky's
power. Thanks Sonia for the support regarding my article.|
