January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

2003, your wrote about a guy "who got out of jail a few years ago after serving
time for killing someone. Not that that makes him a bad person." I haven't
bothered to check other posts by you and I suppose that I will now be the target
of your hopes for a "slow and painful death." But I'd like to know what made you
such a hateful and glib person. Someone has a different opinion to yours, and
you despise them for it. Seems a bit silly to me, and I can't wait for the posts
defending you by all your apologists on this site. Forest, instead of gloating
about Ali's awful condition, I would have thought that a boxing fan like you
would be instead rejoicing the golden era his presence brought to the sport,
regardless of his politics and religion. I read where you recently chastised
someone for mentioning basketball on this site, yet it is okay for you to go off
on tangents about Fonda's politics and Ali's "draft dodging" (to use your term).
Anyways, Steve, you must be so proud receiving that huge compliment from Ward. A
wrap from him makes you a real swell guy, I'm sure. And you being such a great
"historian", I assume you knew of the posts I mentioned above when you stated
that your chest swelled with pride when praised "by someone as great as Ward"
(or words to that effect). |

his peak could handle most of today's heavies. Lennox Lewis would be a possible
exception. Lewis has the giant size to cause problems, plus good movement. At
this point in his career (retirement I guess) he'd lose to Quarry. But a couple
years ago, he might have enough to win. I can't think of anyone else off the
top of my head who would handle JQ. I always say, any live heavy would have a
chance to open cuts on JQ and win by TKO stoppage due to bleeding. |

all of the great fighters from Philly during the seventies.Did you used to go
to The Monday night fights at the Spectrum. Saw Bad Bennie fight many times, was
at the Tyronne Everett title fight against Escallera when Everett got robbed.

give him a great fight and would have his rounds with Lennox's so-so chin, but
Lewis was a very good boxer, not just a big guy, I didn't count him in my
earlier post as he has retired, at least for the moment. Quarry-Toney or Quarry-
Holyfield at 200 lbs. would both be great matches in my opinion. I was recently
re-reading about Eddie Machen and saw his classic fight with Liston on ESPN, he
was very good in my opinion. Word is Jerry loafed against him as he did many
early in his career, but prime-prime this too would be a great match at 200...
Steve/Kent , interesting that you both discuss moving NFL franchises, here in
Cleveland we know of such things also. Why Rams, Colts, Browns were allowed to
move is beyond me. If they can be moved, anyone can. Steve, you could find
yourself following the New Jersey Eagles faster than you think. The Rams,
incidentally, won the NFL title first as the Cleveland Rams, with UCLA's Bob
Waterfield at QB, before the better Browns, also league champs, chased them
out... Kudos again to Antonio Tarver for doing what he said he could, also glad
to see De La Hoya out there again after being ripped off again in his last
match. Massimo, Byron Stewart is 6'7". But Jerry Lucas, Wes Unseld, Dave Cowens,
Willis Reed and Elvin Hayes are all Hall of Fame centers at 6-9 or under who
would still star today. Thanks again.|
