Jerry Quarry vs Cleveland Williams

Quarry beats another big aggresive plodding puncher. Williams would have a few moments early on, but Quarry finds him and finishes him off like he did Mac Foster.

 

atsch I'm in hell.

 

This footage, kindly down loaded by the Great A ,shows Williams to be far from plodding, imo.
He has a live chance of taking Quarry out I beleive.

Quarry....Williams had more power, Quarry had much more skills....

 

It is proven that Quarry was a better (pay attention to the wording) puncher. He finished a better quality of opponent. KO3 over Williams.

 

cleveland williams was not a bad fighter he just never ever won a big fight. EVER.

I am not entirely dismisive of williams, his power deserves respect and there is no doubt the bigcat was a mighty handfull for anyone which is why he is always remembered. I can honestly say if I were around I would look forward to watching big cat, an explosive performer at a level.

Of course quarry is not an ATG either but now that both careers have panned out there is so much more overwhelming evidence in class for this matchup. Quarry would need to make a serious mistake to lose this one. williams has no form at that level.

 

plodding? Williams actually possessed good speed other sluggers like foster, lyle, shavers lacked. Williams was as quick as a cat.

 

Yep Williams is certainly a different kettle of fish to Shavers, Lyle and Foster and he certainly looks to be better than his best wins indicate. I'm not sure about this match up, it's a good 1

 

What sets Big Cat apart from the other huge sluggers Jerry took apart was his hand speed. Cleveland would have enjoyed significant height and reach advantages over JQ as well, advantages not shared by the speedy Patterson. No question who has the better chin and greater durability, but I'm not as comfortable picking Jerry in this one because of that combination of physical gifts Williams did have. For me, this is much more of a pick 'em than JQ-Foreman.

 

He was certainly endowed, oh yes he was!

 

It could be something like the Quarry - Mac Foster fight.

Woller

 

Ok, I'll agree that it's a misdiagnosis to label Williams a plodder, but his achilles heel would seem to be his chin..and I still think Quarry stops him.

 

With some fighters the sum of the parts is less than the whole, while the reverse of this axiom can be applied to other fighters.

In this match, I believe, we see both sides of this coin represented.
