showed against Tyson that he doesn't fear anybody ! I have two matchup for all of you:Mike Tyson-Zora FolleyChuck Wepner-Primo CarneraBoth prime vs prime, of course| |9/17/03 04:54:21 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|Massimo, Andre the Giant was 6'11" tall. I have seen this figure as being his correct height on a couple of sourses, which I can't name at the moment, but I am sure they are somewhere on the internet.| |9/17/03 04:57:29 PM|Roadscholarette|Chicago||roadscholarette@hotmail.com||||10|I'd see Tyson going through Folley like a hot knife through butter - stoppage before five at the longest. Wepner and Carnera? :-) How about a 50 round fight? Then I'd go with Wepner, after da Preem collapsed from exhaustion. Wepner was sort of like the heavy bag - your workout's over, you're tired and sweaty and ready to stop, and there it is, still there waiting for more. Marciano said the same thing about Chuvalo - have fights of 25 or more rounds, and no one would ever take George.Thad Spencer was well touted at the time, and seemed to have the goods to at least give good fights to some of the greats. Wasn't he lazy and reluctant to train though?| |9/17/03 05:32:02 PM|Angelo|Washington, DC||funktron@yahoo.com||||10|No, Oliver McCall was not an "excellent" fighter by the stretch of even the most active imagination, and Rahman does have potential, but hasn't shown himself to be excellent, or an all time great either. No, a draw against Tua doesn't catapult him to be the next coming of Joe Louis! And let's face it, Tua is no Joe Frazier. Now, I'll even go as far as saying that as an "old man" of 40, Ali showed more guts in his loss to Trevor Berbick than Lennox Lewis did in those humiliating losses. Ali finished on his feet. We've talked about it on the Quarry board many times before: The great ones have almost all been knocked down, but they climb up and rally, ala Holmes-Shavers. And "almost" losing, but actually winning is what makes a legend---a great. In contrast, getting your clock cleaned by Oliver McCall shows a major chink in the armour, and having the same thing happen against Rahman confirms the worst. | |9/17/03 08:30:07 PM|Bob Bumbera|NC||renfbera@aol.com||||10|Jimmy, I remember the Superstar compitition between Greg Pruitt and George Foreman. Pruitt won the weight lifting event and Foreman came in second. I think the weight was well over 300 pounds. Pruitt lifted the weight with his legs while Foreman just walked up to the bar and lifted the weight up with his shoulders and back. Talk about super strong. I think George would KO Tyson before the 5th round. Foreman had a chin of iron and had too much heart for Tyson. Not to mention the power. I think the most telling fight for Tyson was his bout with Bonecrusher Smith, who I thought he would blow out. He tied Tyson up, out muscled him and in the final round buckled his legs. Tyson did win the fight going away but if Smith had opened up a few rounds earlier he might have put Tyson away...maybe not. Tyson and Lewis never get up after geting knocked down. Just a few rambling thoughts. | |9/17/03 11:32:19 PM|koo koo|clocksville NY||kookooclock000@yahoo.com||||6|i don't believe it. it's like a reacurring nightmare kent appel after 2 yrs. he's still here!!you people are all over the place. the andrea vs quarry. wepner , chavalo, cooney, let me catch my breath. dks signing in under a hundred names, what a joke:) i can't take it anymore :) i'm rolling on the ground :) kent 's just trying to make a name for himself on here. talking about boxing and jerry quarry not all this garbage. lets see how about hulk hogan vs kent appel, let me think a minute. i pick hulk hogan , see that really takes brains:)))) i'm backkkkk coo coo coo coo| |9/18/03 04:04:01 AM|Kent|So Cal||kentallenent@aol.com||||10|Ha! Ha! the koo koo klock AKA Foolface is back to wreak havoc once more. Come on Dougie, we all know you and Koo Koo are one and the same. I kind of missed your comments about me. Folks, this guy cannot go a post without talking about me.
I am not quite sure why but I look forward to all of the nonsense he is about to unload.Funny, Angelo and Paul Maduros pop in here still after two years but I warrent the attention. Go figure?| |9/18/03 06:39:38 AM|EVREN|LONDON||@||||10|Andre 'The Giant' Rousimoff was 7ft 4 inches and growing when he died. I believe this is the exact figure measured before he died.| |9/18/03 08:07:15 AM|Sonia Hathaway (Quarry)|Joshua Tree, CA||Sonia81@aol.com||||10|The Comments are great to see, this is whats supposed to be like. Oh yeah I see Koo Koo's back!| |9/18/03 08:30:23 AM|Massimo|Rome||ui||||10|Kent, Evren, Angelo, RS-RS, are you sure about Tyson-Folley ? Maybe you' re right butjust remember what Folley did to bonavena and oscarwas as tough as tyson !Evren, I think what you say can't be true ! When Andredied he was 47 years old. If he was still growing ( thiswould mean he had a tumour to the pituitary gland) hewould have been much taller. This happened to RobertWadlow, who reached almost 9 feet and so became thetallest man of all time ! Thanks !Kent-Thanks for your research, you are very kind ( all theLakers fans are great persons !)! I have found that sourcestoo ! But I have even found ( found ore finden ? I'm not sure !)another source that says Andre was 6'10", and thereis a person who met andre' that says he was close to6'9". If we continue this way, one sad day I willread Andre' was 5'2" !! This would be tragic ( I'mjoking........Maybe.....)! I would content of 6'7" !The 7'5"1/2 for Calvin Lane is very realistic. Watching a photo is enough to understand he is surely over 7'3" !If Calvin Lane was a wrestler they would say he is8'4" ! If I was a wrestler, they would say I am6'5", 821lbs,not 5'6", 128lbs !Anyway, Andre' the Midget was a kind man !Kent, who do you think is better between Jabbar andShaq ? Angelo-I think Lewis wasn't in good shape and "right minded" against Rahman1and McCall 1. Ali said:' I was the greatest, but nowLennox Lewis is the greatest !". What do you thinkabout ? Is he crazy ?| |9/18/03 08:32:27 AM|Forest Ward|South Carolina||Joekevin@cs.com||||10|Hi Angelo, I agree with your definition about "greatness" 100%, and also your feelings about "heart." The "great" ones, normally no matter how badly they are being beaten, either find a way to to win, or they lose to another "great" fighter. The "great" ones ordinarily don't loose to ordinary fighters | |9/18/03 09:48:18 AM|koo koo clock|clocksville ny||kookooclock000@yahoo.com||||4|what a place! the rambling goes on! Andrea the giant vs superman vs rocky vs quarry etc... remember an apple a day keeps kent apple a way, but i seem to have run out of apples!! sonia your still looking good baby. armchair boxers, wanna be's thats all thats on this site. koo koo| |9/18/03 10:13:02 AM|kookooclock|clocksville ny||kookooclock000@yahoo.com||||5|did i just read someone say that zero foldup might have a chance at beating mike tyson?? i have a brain surgen on stand by for this guy.carl upadte this site once an a while. your a sleep at the wheel man. koo koo | |9/18/03 10:58:28 AM|Sonia Hathaway (Quarry)|Joshua Tree, CA||Sonia81@aol.com||||10|Thanks Koo Koo!
