    How does Jerry do against a prime Larry?

    Prime Holmes was as good as the Ali who fought Jerry in both fights.

    I think the outcome would be the same.

    TKO on cuts in mid-rounds.

    Not very well IMO. Holmes would be a stylistic nightmare for the counterpunching Quarry.

    Holmes TKO 9 Quarry

    Holmes by T.K.O. (on cuts) rd. 8
    To much Jab, To many right hands
    I place Holmes Punching power a notch above Ali's aswell.

    This is a very bad match up for Quarry stylistically. Holmes would have outboxed Quarry handily en route to scoring a TKO between the seventh and 11th rounds. Cuts may have done Quarry in, or the referee might have stopped it because Quarry was taking too much punishment.

    Quarry would have had a helluva hard time with Larry's jab. As for the outcome, I agree with the consesus opinion.
