before but your link is down.|<br />

Morris|Oaklyn,N.J.||dmmsrm@comcast.net||||10|Kent,sorry about the typo on your<br />
first name.I've been trying to type faster and I guess my fingers got ahead of<br />
my brain.On a related subject,I see where Evren is addressing "the tunaman" as<br />
Mr.Tuna!Ha,gotta love those Brits.Kent,I'm afraid that from now on I shall<br />
require that you adress me as Mr.Steve,just kidding.|<br />

Morris|Oaklyn,N.J.||dmmsrm@comcast.net||||10|Evren,i'd like to express my<br />
appreciation for your work on bringing us this tournament.I've gotta say I<br />
expected Ali to be there at the end,but am a little surprised that Foreman made<br />
it.Another fight between Foreman and Ali could be great,especially if they<br />
disallow the loose ropes and entirely illegal "rope-a-dope" tactics!In reference<br />
to Mr Tuna's offer I have a few questions.Is it still possible to purchase the<br />
extended <strong>Jerry</strong> <strong>Quarry</strong> fight tape from the <strong>Foundation</strong> and what fights are on this<br />
tape?I would prefer purchasing from the <strong>Foundation</strong> and making a contribution to<br />
the cause.I would ,however,like to buy any fights not on the <strong>Quarry</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong><br />
tape.|<br />
|9/19/02 12:23:35 PM|Evren|London||@||||10|I have all those fights and Joe has<br />
all those fights. I would suggest that you can buy them off Joe and he can<br />
donate some of the money to the <strong>Foundation</strong> or Maybe Mr Lonis Tuna could give<br />
money to the foundation as this is a non-profit making site. Evren|<br />
|9/19/02 04:43:08 PM|Bob Bumbera|NC||renfbera@aol.com||||10|Frazier did fight<br />
every top contender in the late 60's. Never said he wasn't a great fighter. He<br />
would have beaten Liston in 68' or 69' and clobbered Norton in 73' or 74'. And<br />
he has my vote for fighting Foreman, when his people knew what would would<br />
happen. And Stander did rock Joe in their fight. All I'm saying is that<br />
between the three, Frazier didn't fight as often or defend his title as<br />
sucessfuly as did Ali and Holmes. Style has a lot to do with it. As for Leroy<br />
Haynes? I think he had something like 20 wins and 19 or 20 losses. Very<br />
formidable guy. Elmer Ray, Obie Walker and Turkey Thompson would have given<br />
Louis a good tumble. But there's that black-white thing again. |<br />

|9/20/02 07:01:57 AM|John Gerard|NYC||rock289z@yahoo.com||||10|<strong>The</strong>re is no doubt<br />
in my mind that the reason Leyron Haynes at 20 loses was because if he didn't he<br />
would "never work again" I could be wrong. No proof.|<br />
|9/20/02 07:35:09 AM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|Yes there is a<br />
dark side of boxing and there is a related story that Jim <strong>Quarry</strong> either told me<br />
or posted here, I don't remember which. I tend to think he told me as it is<br />
something that could have gotten him in trouble and since we don't have some of<br />
the archives, I can't go and look it up here. Anyway, Jim said that there was a<br />
famous boxing official who approached the <strong>Quarry</strong>s and said if Mike ever was in a<br />
close fight, if the <strong>Quarry</strong>s gave him a specified amount of cash, he could make<br />
sure Mike got the decision. Anyone that knows about Mike's career knows he was<br />
on the short end of some close verdicts that he might have won. I am not going<br />
to say who the official is as what I am saying is legally hearsay and it could<br />
bring a libel lawsuit. I tend to believe the story is true. I guess if I get a<br />
chance to see Mike again in the near future, I could ask him myself, but I am<br />
still not sure I would repeat his answer here. Sorry about leading you folks on<br />
by not saying who the official is, but I don't want to cause any problems for
