wrong key. I can't think of a really great fighter Patterson beat.I believe<br />

<strong>Quarry</strong> is a fighter who could be evaluated and ranked on a situational basis.Not<br />

on an hypothetical,what if,fantasy scenero.But a realistic evaulation of his<br />

actual fights!I think a case could be made for a ranking of # 21 ALLTIME!<br />

Machen-much too soon in his career! Inept management.Lost to Jimmy Ellis in a<br />

CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHT ,because he trained and entered the ring with a broken<br />

back!His trainer never noticed? Does anyone believe he lost to Chavulo ? I'm<br />

talking abought this fighter,in his prime .What fighters are ranked at #22<br />

through #26 in Mike Paul's system? Prime against prime,<strong>Quarry</strong> beats Norton and<br />

should be rated ,in my humble opinion,as #20 among alltime greats.|<br />

|10/22/02 08:18:37 AM|Bob Bumbera|NC||renfbera@aol.com||||10|<strong>The</strong> all time list's<br />

top 50 was posted here awhile ago. I think, along with Norton, Patterson Max<br />

Baer, Max Schmeling and "<strong>The</strong> Boston Gob" were also rated in the 20's. I do<br />

think <strong>Jerry</strong> is rated around the right spot. I think he could have taken care of<br />

Norton and also Baer and Sharkey and been rated a little higher. Sharkey would<br />

have been a tough one for <strong>Jerry</strong>, Schmeling would have out-boxed him and I've<br />

always felt he would have creamed Norton. But hey, 27th all time is not too bad<br />

for a guy who never became champion|<br />

CALIFORNIA||RONNYRAINS@YAHOO.COM||||10|Talk about some of the bouts we missed,of<br />

that great 70's era, RON LYLE- KEN NORTON, THEIR RECORDS ARE ALMOST IDENTICAL,<br />

AND PRETTY MUCH AGAINST THE SAME COMPETETION,although sure to be Norton they<br />

odds on favorite, i might have threw a few bucks LYLE'S way.|<br />

|10/22/02 12:53:57 PM|paul|montreal||drolpaul@aol.com||||10|Steve, <strong>Jerry</strong>'s<br />

trainer at the time of the Ellis bout was Teddy Bentham. But it wasn't Teddy's<br />

call; it was <strong>Jerry</strong>'s father, Jack, who green-lighted the bout with Ellis. He<br />

feared that postponing the bout would jeopardize <strong>Jerry</strong>'s largest purse up to<br />

that point, $125,000.00. <strong>The</strong> decision doesn't cast a very favorable light on<br />

Jack. |<br />

|10/22/02 05:43:22 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||oriononside@aol.com||||10|I am not<br />

siding with Jack <strong>Quarry</strong>'s decision to go ahead with the Ellis fight because if<br />

<strong>Jerry</strong> was in pain, he should not have taken the fight. But in all fairness to<br />

Jack and Bentham, I don't think they knew the severity of <strong>Jerry</strong>'s injury before<br />

the fight. It is my understanding that it was after the fight that they<br />

discovered that <strong>Jerry</strong> had a broken back and it was then he was put into a body<br />

cast. |<br />
