    What do we think?If Tommy the Duke could do it, couldn't Quarry?

    Or does George KO him,add him to his list of KO victims perhaps?

    I think Jerry has at least an even chance here of getting him self a decision.
    He can't get silly tho obviously, that's gonna do him no favours..

    Yes. A prime Jerry Quarry would have a CHANCE at out pointing a 42 year old Foreman to a decision.

    Quarry had a solid chin and could box enough to take Big George into deep waters so yes. Foreman had excellent power, but the young version got winded. I have seen Quarry KO Shavers, Mac Foster, dominate Ron Lyle, Quarry had trouble with speed, but Foremans management had a good reason to avoid Jerry who was a dangerous fight for Foreman.

    I don't know. Morrison spent the night on the move. Quarry, could get caught in slug fests. If he plays Foreman's game, it could get ugly for him.
