January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

scrapbook of clippings that I got from the website, but I don't remember seeing
anything about those fights in it. It doesn't have a lot about obscure fights
in Jerry's career anyway, so they might not be in there. Anyway, maybe we can
clear up where the Corletti fight happened after all. KNUCK, KNUCK KNUCK |

CORLETTI fight was at The Forum. I watched it on TV in 1972, as part of a
series that had Foreman on a couple of weeks earlier. ESPNCL has the tape and
could show it, however it seems to be asking too much for them the air Jerry's
winning fights. The only victory of Jerry's they show is the Shavers bout.
ESPNCL's recent double bill of Jerry Vs Frazier II and Norton back to back was
insulting. Can't help but notice they have scheduled two of Chuvalo's loosing
efforts in a row next week as well.|

the tourniment? I missed the results of the last two matches,Liston vs Louis and
Frazier vs Tyson.|

is doing the tournament. He hasn't posted in about a week. I think we agreed
that Frazier won over Tyson but the results of Louis and Liston hadn't been
posted yet. I think, without going back to the posts, that Louis was probably
our pick to win. Hurry back Evren, we have gotten this far with the tournament,
we might has well finish it. I think it would have been a better idea to do 32
fighters at the beginning of the tournament instead of 64. I do hope we can
finish it though. We sure have been through a lot in the time since it started,
and not all good of course. |
|8/30/02 12:12:51 PM|Steve|N.J.||dmmsrm@comcast.net||||10|I read an interesting
article on another website by a guy who was trying to become a fighter as a
teenager.Jerry was just turning pro at the time,coming of his amazing amatuer
career.this guy was inspired by Jerry's sucess.He tried to contact Jerry without
any sucess.He finally just looked him up in the phone book.To his amazement,
Jerry himself answered the phone.Jerry was full of encouragement and even
invited him to visit when he was training,at the time in a converted garage in
Johnny Flores backyard.I don't know the guys'name,but wonder if it might be the
ltheavywieght Rick Farris mentioned by Paul Drolet.|
