LETTING ME ADD ON TO THE JERRY QUARRY STORY. WIN ,LOSE OR DRAW JERRY WAS ALLWAYS<br />
A CHAMP.-----------BOB|<br />
|6/21/03 02:59:28 AM|Evren|London||@||||10|Klitschko to Ko Lewis in the third<br />
round!|<br />
|6/21/03 08:45:10 AM|Jeffery Smith|New Orleans||jls@runbox.com||||10|I would<br />
have disagreed on the result, but yesterday I discovered that Lewis is fatter<br />
than any previous fight. When he doesn't train, he loses.|<br />
|6/22/03 08:26:22 AM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||orionosnside@aol.com||||10|Lewis verses<br />
Vitali Klitschko was a good one. Lewis was a little sluggish but both fighters<br />
showed a lot of heart. For those that don't know, Lennox Lewis retained<br />
his heavyweight title by sixth round TKO due to a bad cut over Klitschko's left<br />
eye. Klitschko led on all three judges' scorecards by scores of 58 to 56 at the<br />
time of the stoppage but it was a tough fight. Worth a look when HBO shows it<br />
again. |<br />
|6/22/03 09:14:19 AM|Jeffery Smith|New Orleans, LA||jls@runbox.com||||10|It was<br />
odd seeing Lewis looking so small in the ring. I think he was totally out of gas<br />
in the 6th. Had Vitali not been cut, I think he would have stopped Lewis. Don't<br />
get me wrong, though; Vitali was tired too. Time for Lewis to retire. I wouldn't<br />
pay for a pay-for-view fight with him in the future based on this performance.|<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Klitscko's cut reminded me of the bad<br />
one,<strong>Jerry</strong> received vs Ali I in 70'(which referee Perez said was the worst he'd<br />
ever seen).Looked up some more NY Times microfilm and found <strong>Jerry</strong> and Mike Q.<br />
sparring at the felt forum ,Before Mike's bout with Tommy Hicks,the article had<br />
both Brothers Ranked NO. 2 in the World,for their respective division's dated<br />
March 8,1972,I'd predicted an 8th round Tko for Lennox Lewis,But it was a good<br />
bout,seemed both acted liked the'd ran a marathon,before they even got in the<br />
ring,both would have passed out, had they thrown the punches Joe Frazier, AND JQ<br />
did in 69'|<br />

it right about 34 years ago a this very moment, <strong>Jerry</strong> <strong>Quarry</strong> was stopped by Joe<br />
Frazier at MSG in NYC. I was there that night. Joe Frazier and <strong>Jerry</strong> <strong>Quarry</strong><br />
were brave gladiators that night, I am sorry someone had to lose. Sadly, <strong>Jerry</strong><br />
and all the men who worked his corner that night have gone to the great beyond.<br />
Let us not forget, but also cherish Joe Frazier for still being with us |<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|HI FOREST,glad to see your still out<br />
there,Wished i'd been to half the fights you have been to in your life,One of<br />
the few <strong>Jerry</strong> <strong>Quarry</strong> fights i've seen live was James J.Woody in Vegas'And what<br />
an exciting 2 rounds that was,James J.really was in good shape,and throwing<br />
bombs before <strong>Jerry</strong> just overwhelmed him,<strong>Jerry</strong>'d just married "charlie" 2 days<br />
before,was'nt gonna let anyone beat him,i'm glad you picked up on last nights<br />
post and <strong>Quarry</strong>-Frazier 34 years ago to the day,but Forrest,not everyone in<br />
JERRY'S corner has gone to the great beyond,GIL CLANCY was also in <strong>Jerry</strong>'s<br />
corner in the 69'bout,he's still alive isn't he? also worked Mac Foster's corner<br />
in 70' vs JERRY,AND QUARRY had Chickie Ferrara,then Chickie was in Ali's corner<br />
vs JQ, THIS IS GETTING CONFUSING|<br />

it's nice to hear from you. <strong>The</strong> night of Frazier-<strong>Quarry</strong> I, in <strong>Jerry</strong>'s corner<br />
were Johnny Flores and Teddy Bentham, sadly all 3 are gone. Gil Clancy was<br />
actually assisting Joe Frazier that night. He was not actually in the corner,<br />
but on the fringes. Yank Durham and Gil Clancy were friends. Joe Frazier and<br />
Emile Griffith both trained together at the Concord Hotel for their March 1968<br />
fight in the then new MSG, for their double header against Mathis and Benvenuti.<br />
Durham, used Clancy the night of the <strong>Quarry</strong> fight for "insurance". Clancy was a<br />
MSG "insider" and a little "insurance" against <strong>Jerry</strong> was welcome, but it was not<br />
necessary that night.Jim, interesting enough that night the walkout that
