Andre'.Do you immagine a street fight between Balboa and Andre' ? Or
Ali', Frazier, Foreman, Andre' all together against Calvin Lane ? That would be
like an earthwake !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nobody can whip Calvin Lane ! He is the
baddest ass ( slang ) in the wordl !|

WASHINGTON||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Gerry: Yes I can remember Tom
Brookshier,Talking about how Ron Yary would visit Quarry in the off season in
Cypress Ca. When Yary was inducted in the HALL OF FAME,last year he looked like
he could still play! Ironically another HALL OF FAMER, Deacon Jones and Quarry
promoted bouts in L.A. Called "Salt and Pepper Enterprises" in the 1980's. I
guess Jerry was friends with a lot of L.A. RAMS, I remember Mr.Jimmy telling me
how Jerry told him he didn't think the Rams would ever win the Super BOWL after
another playoff loss to Yary's Vikings! take care.|

20 or 30 guys who came up fighting and boxing in cities all over the world --
guys who have been close to the sport for 20, 30, 40, maybe 50 years, including
good buddies of the Quarry family. And with what you read in books, you propose
to tell us what's what. You're comical. Anyway, Lyle Alzado used to brag he
was the toughest man in the world. He said if he and King Kong went into an
alley together, he'd be the one to walk out. Granted he was a big, tough
football player, and came up hard frommean streets. But Lyle is going to whip
Larry Norton, Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe, or George Foreman or Sonny Liston?
Alex Karras really was a hard dude. I wonder if he could have taken Alzado.
No, the key element of fighting ability is good elbows. Great elbows, great
fighter. Look at Eddie Machen, the original elbow fighter. Nom, these kids
in the ring today just don't have good enough elbows .. |

WASHINGTON||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|HI Ernie, Jerry Quarry would have whipped
Alzado, at any faze of knuckle dustin,and Roddy Piper did as an amateur boxer.
maybe it was Ron Stander too.|

at one time about a proposed Lyle verses Lyle fight, Denver verses Denver,
between Ron Lyle and Lyle Alzado. Sorry Alzado, you were not even the toughest
guy in Denver, Ronnie L. would have kicked your ass, big time!Alzado did
not do too badly in an exhibition between him and an out of shape Muhammed Ali
and even though he was clearly outclassed, he did show he had some basic boxing
skills. My money still would have been on Ron L. though.Funny how much
disrespect our Jerry used to get. Most of my friends thought Lyle Alzado would
have kicked his ass, even in boxing. But we here all know different. Jerry
would have given him the beating of his life inside a boxing ring and maybe
outside of it as well.|

down. I didn't set out to upset you. One of my husband's cousins, living down
town, is a janitor and knowing his hours, I just assumed that you wouldn't get
much time to be reading about boxing. My point was that I'd share some of what
I've learned with you, trying to be friendly, and you took it the wrong way.
Even people like me who read a lot get it wrong. Joe Frazier has a 13.5" inch
fist, and I said his fists were small. So what do I know ? How ya doing Massimo
? I am the real one. |

Hi, I'm fine, but I don't think you are the realRS. The real RS told
me that she didn't write the last post. The real RS would have never said Joe
Frazier's hands are small, not even after an entire night spent drinking. I'm
getting confused. RS is not RS, Shaq is gonna dunk right on Vlade's face, Kobe
is gonna dunk right on Shaq's face, Andre' was a midget... This is a pretty
strange wordl ! Who am I ? What's Italy ? Who is Erminio Spalla ? What's my
