anking and that is much better the wannabes on the various boxing boards who<br />
talk trash against him. Also, note I wasn't talking about the people who post<br />
here as they treat him better than some of the other boards out there.YA<br />
KNUCKLEHEAD! I ALREADY CONCEDED THAT JERRY FOUGHT CORLETTI AT THE FORUM.<br />
MULTIPLE EYE POKES FOR YOU THIS TIME!|<br />

Anybody interested? Personally I think Johnson would have had a better chance<br />
but who knows,it might be a good fight.Its on HBO..certainly not worth ppv.|<br />
|6/11/03 07:18:48 AM|John Gerard|NYC||rock289z@yahoo.com||||10|I don't think<br />
Klitchko is ready for this one, unless Lewis's slip has really begun to show and<br />
he is ready to be taken. I would have rather seen Klitchko fight David Tua or<br />
even Evander Holyfield or Tyson. He needs more experience against really skilled<br />
fighters.|<br />

are an enigma. One mintute they can look great and the next minute lousy.<br />
Vitali Klitschko fought very well against Chris Byrd, winning almost every<br />
round, before he suffered a shoulder injury, forcing him to not be able to<br />
continue in about the ninth round. His most recent bout against Larry Donald,<br />
he looked very clumsy in scoring a tenth round KO. I was waiting for someone to<br />
put the pressure on his brother, Wladimir, who was looking like the next big<br />
thing and the first fighter that came out agressively taking the fight to him,<br />
Corrie Sanders (of South Africa), flattened him in less than two rounds. Hats<br />
off to Lewis for taking this fight as they may have been able to sell this as<br />
pay for view later. I am picking Lewis by decision. Too bad for Kirk Johnson,<br />
who I thought had a good shot. |<br />

KO somewhere inbetweensix and eighth round. |<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Just went thru all my archives on<br />
<strong>Quarry</strong>,In 16 MAJOR bouts,he was the underdog 11 of them,and his record was 6-8-<br />
2,that means 8 of his defeats,where "big" enough to make the sports book,Even<br />
Alongi in MSG was an 7-5 favorite(probably his 38-2 record,experience and reach<br />
plus 6'5"). in these bouts,Alongi,Machen,Patterson<br />
(twice)Spencer,Ellis,Mathis,Frazier (twice)Chuvalo,Foster,Ali (twice)<br />
Lyle,Shavers And Norton,he had a 10-3 plus knockdown rate,thats amazing!!|<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Also,on <strong>Quarry</strong>-NORTON,they official odds<br />
were 7-5 NORTON,but elsewhere around the country,it was 6-5 "pick em".That<br />
particular bout was signed MARCH 6.1975,So <strong>Jerry</strong> had all of 18 days to train,it<br />
was originally Norton-Bonavena,then surprisingly was KEN NORTON-JIMMY<br />
YOUNG,(WHO'D JUST DECISIONED LYLE).then they thru $175,000 at JERRY AND THAT WAS<br />
IT.I was really apprehensive for JQ when he signed for Frazier II,Especially on<br />
May 30,1974,When JOE sent two of his sparring partners to the hospital,one was<br />
none other than MR.JIMMY YOUNG AT HIS PHILADELPHIA GYM!|<br />

agree Bobick was a good 70's heavy, following his high amateur profile. Did beat<br />
LeDoux twice as mentioned, also I beleive he beat Mike Weaver very early on for<br />
both. He does get dismissed by many for his skin color and hype, but had a very<br />
respectable career. Not as good as Cooney or quite a few others, but a lot of<br />
guys were intimidated by Norton back in the mid 70's, when Bobick met him. Not<br />
much in today's heavyweight division, true. I like Lewis to outbox Klitschko,<br />
but I feel the smaller Klitschko (the one who can box)has a real chance to be<br />
champ someday. It's good that someone recently again made note of all the very<br />
good contenders JQ beat during his career. Just because a top fighter ( someone<br />
else mentioned the very good Machen ) doesn't get to hold the belt does not mean<br />
their career is a failure. Only one guy can be champ, even in today's bowl of<br />
alphabet soup. <strong>Jerry</strong> was a huge star and a great draw for boxing in his prime,
