    Both could have great nights and low moments. Sharkey who stopped Tommy Loughran v Quarry who beat Patterson .
    15 round s

    Sharkey if his head is screwed on straight, and Quarry if it is not.

    Peak for peak with no outside influences I'll take the more underrated Quarry .

    I always said Jerry Quarry was a 1960s/70s version of Jack Sharkey. Both tempestuous and both could fight. I think I would have suggested the Quarry from the first Frazier fight as his prime, but I love your matchup. And the winner would be the fans.

    Sharkey, imo, outclasses Jerry over the distance. Both fighters were erratic and both were, on occasion, exceptional. Jack, though, was a champion.

    Both were really inconcindent. Maybe adraw would settle the matter.

    Def Quarry ran into a bad era imo...put him in many points through out boxing history and he’s a champ.

    I wouldn't bet money on this fight, to say the least
