Bonavena-Chuvalo and Chuvalo was robbed in that decision. I had it 6-4 Chuvalo
and it seemed a draw was the worst George would do, he outmuscled Bonavena on
the inside and won most of their confrontations. Chuvalo was not knocked down
in that fight, although he slipped. The only time I ever saw George visibily
shaken in my large library of Chuvalo fights was the 3rd round against Foreman.
He was never shaken like that before or after.|

always wondered about that. George really was an iron man. Bonavena was pretty
tough too. I think he may have hit harder than George.|

your statis regarding a Jerry Quarry biography? Nows the time for it, since the
70's heavyweights seem to be experiencing a surge in popularity among a growing
number of younger as well as boomer fight fans.Are you still considering it or
have you given up?|

am not sure why you are calling me Ken after you have referred to me by my name,
Kent, for quite some time now. All my life I have had to correct people on this
as well as my last name. My last name is Appel, pronounced A-Pell, not apple.
You would be surprised how many people get this wrong. Back to boxing, I just
saw some highlights featuring Ali's early championship bouts and the first
Ali/Chuvalo fight was one of them. Very few people fought Ali tougher than
Chuvalo did. Besides the Bonevena fight, Chuvalo seemed to get the short end of
the stick on other decisions as well. One that comes to mind is when he
appeared to beat Ernie Terrell only to have Terrell declared the winner. Jerry
was just about the only major contender Chuvalo beat and this is surprising as
Chuvalo was one tough guy.|
|9/18/02 03:47:47 PM|Joe Krause|Chicago||sadmspats@yahoo.com||||10|I thought
Terrell beat Chuvalo about 9-6 in their fight. Chuvalo's best night against a
contender was probably his good victory over Doug Jones. Jones had just knocked
out Zora Folley and was looking to a big payday. The Quarry fight of course was
a good win, but George didn't look that good doing it. I have that Jones fight
and it was a nice find as I have seen it rarely offered. Chuvalo was too big
for Doug who could have been a great light-heavy if he could have stayed down
there. |

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|I have asked this before but how is
anyone on 1966-75 boxing illustrateds?? i've researched every world rating JQ
ever had by "the RING MAGAZINE". And i hear now they W.B.A was they official
rating committe. and they are only in boxing illustrateds, and their ratings. i
did come across an nov 66 issue were JERRY'S RATED #22.The magazine before had
Quarry-Machen, and Eddie was #11.So Jerry must have been 17-1-3 at the time.|
