Jerry Quarry in a different era?

Actually, the thing the sticks out to me about Quarry is that in or out of his peak, he almost always beat a well-ranked fighter.

 

I was great friends with Mike and i'm in Jerry's book "hard luck" I was raised 30 miles from Bakersfield, Jerry and Mike were born there. Also talk to their former middleweight brother in law Mike Nixon about everyday

 

A buddy of mine is a ex fighter named Bob Bozic .. Back in the early seventies Bob was a top sparring partner for Chuvalo .. he told me a story of how Quarry, Chuvalo and Boone Kirkman we're driving cross country together for some reason or other and that they went to some bar and some local yokels actually started **** with them .. he said believe it or not Chuvalo wanted got walk away but Gerry got hot and crushed a bunch of them on his own ..,

 

I mention 1969-1970 (1967-73 of course optimum career best)
His best shape of his life was Ali in Atlanta
Frazier & Buster Mathis, Jerry looked very strong
he had at least 10 one punch ten count knockouts by then
He punched holes in Chuvalo and Foster.

 

I used to watch Mike Nixon box on television, Boxing From The Forum, very talented fighter.

 

If he’s moving to a different era then he’s better off going backward not forward

 

I'll tell you one thing William , jack bodell can kick Bugners ass for 15 rounds, and Jerry knocks this guy out with one punch, ya maybe i hold em in great regard sometimes

 

rewind or fast forward Mr. Maggo rewind or fast forward

 

Nixon only had 7 amateur fights, and at 18, he's headlining in Los Angeles IN 1971, He had great natural talent. Richard and you know more than anybody 160 lbs, power & speed, was arguably the toughest division

 

Backward = rewind

 

He couldn't have drawn a much worse era.

 

What does that mean ?

 

He wasn't exactly lucky with his timing!

 

Part of me thinks he's clearly a talented guy and perhaps could upset a weak champ.

But then another part of me thinks he just didn't have what it took to become number 1.

 

You make a lot of sense but I think Smith would have too big and powerful for Quarry and he took Bruno`s best shots, I don`t think Quarry could hurt Smith.
