Cleveland Big Cat Williams 1960 vs Jerry Quarry 1969, who wins?

I think this is a very close- Though I do think Jerry edges it only just.

 

if he was fatally shot in 64 how did he fight in 66? I don’t think this word fatally means what you think it does.

 

Don't go there, he will give us the date of the operation and every single date related to everything connected with it.

 

He died 6 times on the operating table, suffered partial permanent paralysis, lost 10 feet of his small intestine, and his right kidney had to be removed. He also "lost enough blood to kill half a dozen men".

 

You'd have to favor Quarry. He's underrated and the guy could fight. I think he'd wear big Cleve down somewhere approaching the 30 minute mark.

 

Another good one Richard.
I'm leaning towards Quarry in a tough one, and I don't see it being a one sided fight. Quarry tough s it out to stop William in 9.

 

Say what you want about The Big Cat but he didn't know the meaning of the word fear. Fighting a peak Liston twice when nobody wanted to fight him once, especially after being ko'd in the manner he was, took some balls.

 

Mmmm, so Jerry faced with a big HW that can punch ( that's not called Ali or Frazier ) pretty good idea how that would go.

 

Quarry has beaten bigger and better. Williams always has a punchers chance but he isn’t taking this one.

 

It does. It's really a pretty unbelievable story. Wikipedia can describe the injury better than I can:

"...hitting Williams in the stomach and lodging in his right hip. Williams had to undergo four operations in the next seven months for colon damage and an injured right kidney. The right kidney had to be removed in June 1965. Doctors could not extract the bullet, which had broken his right hip joint and caused partial paralysis of some of the hip's muscles, he also lost over 10 feet (3.0 m) of his small intestine, and sustained nerve damage which affected his left leg above the knee and caused it to atrophy as a result."

I once read that the doctors who operated on Williams said that if he hadn't been so heavily muscled that he wouldn't have survived all of the surgeries.

Anyway, his record shows a return to the ring in '66. Hell, he fought Ali and fought for another 6 years. Unbelievable but true.

 

thanks for all of this info that I have known for 30 odd years lol. But fatally?
