sunlight?Every time he smacked one of those pitches past the home run
markers'the crowd went wild.You could tell He loved the crowd and the crowd
loved him.Okay,back to the new info.I recieved it from someone whom I can only
suppose does not choose to take part in these discussions.I therefore will
respect his privacy.He said he witnessed a fight between Bobby Quarry and Mike
Nixon in a kitchen in Bakersfield.He said "Now that was a street fight"!|

talk to Bobby Quarry on a fairly regular basis and I will try to remember to ask
him the next time I talk to him, maybe this weekend, if he ever got in a fight
with Mike Nixon. I had heard that Jerry had gotten in a fight with Nixon, but
this is the first time I have heard anything about Bobby fighting with him.
Wasn't Nixon married to Wilma Q at one time? This is true isn't it Sonia or
other family members out there? I do know that Wilma Q is married to a nice man
now, as I met him at Jimmy Q's memorial reception and Wilma and him were very
gracious hosts. I think it is amazing also that not only is Jerry still popular
with the fans, that the Quarry family is still on people's minds. There are not
any families out there like them. they are unique. But in a way, I feel rather
silly thinking about some of these details of things like who fought who in a
street fight. I sometimes think that maybe we should get a life! NAH! What
would we do if we didn't come to this board, my favorite boxing site on the
net.|

one time, but that was long ago, and she's married to a real nice guy and has
been for years. Have fun all.|
|12/22/02 08:04:25 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|Yes Steve,
Bobby Quarry and Mike Nixon did have a fight. Funny thing is, they were hanging
out together and had gone to a concert and it started out as horseplay, hitting
each other on the arms, and it got out of hand and it turned into a full fledged
fight. Bobby says that they ended up being friends again the next day. On the
subject of Nixon, I know nothing about him as a person and just because I say
that one of the Quarry sisters, who was married to Nixon at one time, is now
married to a nice man, doesn't mean I am saying that Nixon isn't a good man. It
is not my place to say, one way or the other.|
