January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

Kent, for quite some time now. All my life I have had to correct people on this
as well as my last name. My last name is Appel, pronounced A-Pell, not apple.
You would be surprised how many people get this wrong. Back to boxing, I just
saw some highlights featuring Ali's early championship bouts and the first
Ali/Chuvalo fight was one of them. Very few people fought Ali tougher than
Chuvalo did. Besides the Bonevena fight, Chuvalo seemed to get the short end of
the stick on other decisions as well. One that comes to mind is when he
appeared to beat Ernie Terrell only to have Terrell declared the winner. Jerry
was just about the only major contender Chuvalo beat and this is surprising as
Chuvalo was one tough guy.|

Terrell beat Chuvalo about 9-6 in their fight. Chuvalo's best night against a
contender was probably his good victory over Doug Jones. Jones had just knocked
out Zora Folley and was looking to a big payday. The Quarry fight of course was
a good win, but George didn't look that good doing it. I have that Jones fight
and it was a nice find as I have seen it rarely offered. Chuvalo was too big
for Doug who could have been a great light-heavy if he could have stayed down
there. |

anyone on 1966-75 boxing illustrateds?? i've researched every world rating JQ
ever had by "the RING MAGAZINE". And i hear now they W.B.A was they official
rating committe. and they are only in boxing illustrateds, and their ratings. i
did come across an nov 66 issue were JERRY'S RATED #22.The magazine before had
Quarry-Machen, and Eddie was #11.So Jerry must have been 17-1-3 at the time.|

my brain.On a related subject,I see where Evren is addressing "the tunaman" as

Morris|Oaklyn,N.J.||dmmsrm@comcast.net||||10|Evren,i'd like to express my
appreciation for your work on bringing us this tournament.I've gotta say I
expected Ali to be there at the end,but am a little surprised that Foreman made
it.Another fight between Foreman and Ali could be great,especially if they
disallow the loose ropes and entirely illegal "rope-a-dope" tactics!In reference
to Mr Tuna's offer I have a few questions.Is it still possible to purchase the
