punches. Thomas came on in the last two rounds as Cooney slowed down. Thomas
hurt Cooney a couple of times in both rounds to leave a lasting impression on
the judges. Ernie Laxalt, i didn't see anyone answer your questions about the
P4P thing. here's mine. Ali vs. Robinson, Robinson by KO.S.R. Leonard
vs. Ali, Leonard by Decesion.Duran vs. Marciano, Duran by
Decesion.Quarry vs. Arguello, Arguello by KOBenvenuti vs. Conn, Conn by
KOArmstrong vs. Hearns, Armstrong by KOHagler vs. Frazier, Hagler by
KOMoore vs Jones Jr, Moore by Decesion.For the sake of arguement, I've
removed all the intangeables, height, weight ,reach etc. In other words they are
all the same size say 6' 180lbs with a 75" reach. Kind of an "average guy
size"|

WASHINGTON||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Kent you lunkhead, A double poke in they
eye, and a pie in the face for you, not only do I have to tell you what arena
your in, I specifically told you July 29th in LAS VEGAS. And I appreciate you
maybe making it up to Vegas.And next time for sure. I found out Pullman
(Cougers) have all L.A. Times Micro.And i'll give it another go.Gerry I would
like to get everything I've researched on his record. I have the score cards 28
0f 34 DECISIONS on his record.He was an UNDERDOG IN AT LEAST 13 matches.And that
goes for all 4 Draws.And Massimo YES the QUARRY-MACHEN bout was a great match,
which would slow down, but then heat up as both combatants would try to knock
they other out, forgive me people if you ask a question and I do not respond
immediately, for my internet time is very limited for now. And Kent, Jerry only
lost 1 bout when he had the advantage in weight. Ron Cranmer, who no one even
acknowledges, except maybe Cranmer's mommy.|

excuses for Quarry, but about giving him his due. Uninformed boxing fans seem
to dwell on the nature of the losses later in his career (expecially Ali II,
Frazier II and Norton---how he was cut up in these fights). In fact, Howard
Cosell, who I respected for having some boxing knowledge, made some crass remark
about Earnie Shavers as being "one of the few who can claim a loss to Quarry"
which is patently ridiculous. For Cosell to say that, it amplified what less
informed people thought about JQ's career. I think the fans on this site just
want to set the record straight by recalling all the great fighters Quarry was
in against, and competed well against---and the very good ones who he defeated
impressively (like Shavers and Lyle). Ali and possibly Frazier are all-time
top ten fighters in any weight class---Norton is likely a top twenty all-time
heavyweight. These guys represent five of Quarry's defeats. That's very
impressive, and I don't go along with your post, which seems to dismiss JQ as
merely "good." His record, his opponents, his big wins---the era he fought in--
-all add up to something far better than "good."Like I said, it's not
excuses (Lord knows Quarry doesn't need any of us to make excuses about his
career.), but it's really paying tribute to him on his own site. |

all is well. You are a good singer, huh. I am completely tone deaf. Can't sing,
can't dance. Going back reading a few posts makes me think your suspicion about
one writer with multiple names is correct.Evren (from London), sorry I
inadvertently mixed your name up, but I was being sincere in wishing that life
is now fun for you because I remember you were going through a hard time last
