EVERY ROUND although he was also a good brawler and slugger, but not quite in<br />
that FOREMAN/FRAZIER CLASS|<br />

WOULD "SMOKIN JOE" DO VS THAT BIG SLUGGER, LIKE MAC FOSTER,RON LYLE EARNIE<br />
SHAVERS, JEFF MERRITT TYPES?IT MIGHT OF BEEN ALOT LIKE FOREMAN, HOW ABOUT SONNY<br />
LISTON??and i have they utmost respect for Frazier,and that 1974 bout with<br />
<strong>Quarry</strong> was my most disappointment of my life as far aS BOXING WENT,I WAS SURE<br />
JERRY'D GET THE TITLE SHOT, OF COURSE HE HAD BILLS TO PAY.|<br />

had absolutley no business as the third man in the ring in the second frazier<br />
fight|<br />
|12/12/02 05:40:51 PM|Evren|London||@||||10|I think Joe would beat Shavers,<br />
Merrit and Foster with considerable ease. Again you are talking about one of the<br />
best fighters that ever lived against also ran's. I feel Joe at his best in<br />
1970/1971 may have beaten George because of his speed and fitness but who knows.<br />
Joe never made excuses for losing to George and remember only two men ever beat<br />
him.|<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO,COM||||10|Neither did Zack Clayton have any<br />
business,refereeing QUARRY/CHUVALO FOREMAN/ALI, and i'm not talking about a fast<br />
count or the canvas being soft or the ropes too loose!!|<br />
|12/13/02 03:08:20 AM|Evren|London||@||||10|I've watched that Chuvalo vs <strong>Quarry</strong><br />
bout many times and feel, sadly that <strong>Jerry</strong> got up too late. I felt Zack done a<br />
good job in that fight and he did shout the count into <strong>Jerry</strong>'s ear. It was very<br />
similar to what happened to Jersey Joe in the rematch with Rocky.|<br />
|12/13/02 05:53:17 AM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|<strong>Jerry</strong> lost<br />
fair and square to Chuvalo. Not because he was hurt, it was simply a mental<br />
laspe on <strong>Jerry</strong>'s part. It seems to me that he forgot he had gotten back up<br />
quickly before kneeling down to take the eight count and he thought he had more<br />
time to get up than he actually had. Even Don Dunphy, the announcer, was<br />
shocked and he can be heard shouting, "Oh no!" when <strong>Jerry</strong> was counted out. I<br />
think Frazier of the second fight with <strong>Jerry</strong> would have been hard to beat by<br />
anyone. He felt he had something to prove after losses to Ali and Foreman.<br />
Frazier worked hard to get ready for that fight because he knew <strong>Jerry</strong> was<br />
capable of taking what he had wanted very much, another shot at the title.<br />
Louis was late in stopping the fight. I don't know how he didn't notice that<br />
<strong>Jerry</strong> was bleeding badly and no longer throwing many punches in return. I will<br />
say this though, I lost respect for Angelo Dundee after watching Frazier/<strong>Quarry</strong><br />
2 again recently because it reminded me how disrespectful he was to Joe Louis.<br />
You can hear him yelling several times in the fight to Louis, "get out of the<br />
way Joe, work the other side," in a very sarcastic tone of voice. I realize<br />
Louis may have been in the way of his line of sight or the television cameras<br />
but, the ring is the referee's territory and Dundee had no right to say these<br />
things and to treat Louis like that. Joe Louis was boxing royalty at that point<br />
and he should have been treated as such.|<br />
|12/13/02 08:42:55 AM|Joe Krause|Chicago||sadmspats@yahoo.com||||10|Joe Frazier<br />
1968-1971 was one of the best ever. After the first Ali fight he was never the<br />
same. He always had a layer of fat in the middle and was just not as ferocious.<br />
Early Frazier is such a pleasure to watch. I sure wish Frazier-Bonavena II<br />
could be found complete. It looked like a war in the 5 rounds I do have.|<br />
