January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

theories about how Jerry could have beaten Liston, Foreman, Joe Louis, Rocky
Marciano, etc. Jerry doesn't need far-fetched theories. He did incredibly well.

couldn't see Dennis " the real Truth" Williams vs Mike Tyson. This is the first
Mike Tyson's fight I miss. This is very sad. But yesterday I have seen Gene
Fullmer vs Bennie " Kid" Paret ( rounds 1, 2 , 7, 10 honestly speaking). What a
fight ! Awesome ! It was another Frazier-Quarry 1, but lasted almost ten round.
I think Gene Fullmer is underrated. He was a great, great, great... Great
champion ! Spinto da curiosita', I have read his record: AWESOME ! He beat
Carmen Basilio twice and it seems to me that he fought Salt Ray Robinson 5
times: 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. Who was better ? Bennie "Kid" Paret was very
good too, but not quite in Gene Fullmer's class. |

tock? I'm limping as fast as I can Bill, put the gun down ... I think this says
something that the people who post here are passionate fans of boxing, and of
the era that Ali, Quarry et al performed in. That said, there is some
responsibility here to read someone's post thoroughly before attempting to flog
him with a 9-iron. I was talking to TWO GUYS when I made the 'poster' reference,
not Kent or anyone else, and it's a joke anyway. " I , Gerry Schultz, being of
sound mind and bruised body, do again state to the jury... ALI IS THE BEST
(still with me?) I EVER SAW. Anyone lacking the eyesight to see that comment,
please see a doctor immediately. What do I base that assessment on? AGAIN, IT IS
HIS CAREER BEFORE BEING STRIPPED. I have shown more than a litle respect for the
man as a fighter. I don't appreciate Ali nearly as much as a man, who often used
white media to confuse and insult BLACK opponents, who often held himself as
Blacker Than Thou against very good black men. Is he responsible for his
actions? Is anyone? I say yes, we are. Do I forgive him? For what? This is just
my take on the man, my opinion causes him no injury, no matter how many share
it. If you think My opinion of him is unfair, then You have just expressed your
opinion. America still allows this for both of us, I swear. You two need to get
a beer and a massage. I do hope this clarification does not again seriously
injure or offend your delicate sensibilities. |

clips of Clay in Rome (1960) and he fought like a genius. He was really AWESOME.
He was incredibly quick ! I wonder if he ever fought in that way early in his
professional fights.|

career.|

on JQ and Liston. I always bet on Jerry, but the one fight i was not sure on
was Jerry and Shavers and look what happen. So since we will never know JQ vs
Liston. I'm going with JQ.Ali was a great fighter,but he did have alot of
people in his pocket the last few fights.He turned out to be a Elvis in the
fight game just going thru the motions.|
|8/1/04 04:16:00 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||kentallenent@aol.com||||10|Fran, I wasn't
speaking for everyone, just making a point that we are objective here. There is
room for disagreement like I disagree that prime verses prime that Jerry could
have survived not being cut by Liston's jab. I think most of the people who
come here are in agreement with me on this but not everyone.What I like
about this site is a lot of the time we can disagree about a topic but not make
it personal.|
|8/1/04 04:59:23 PM|Bill|London||same||||10|Gerry, you are coming off as a real
smart alec and I see that you avoided answering the questions about Ali's first
career. You still haven't the guts to come out and say you hate Ali. I think
that you are a stay at home twisted little guy with a face like a half sucked
mango.Fran, are you saying that the racism was all a one way street and
