    If Quarry didn't bleed too badly, then I'd pick him to take Coetzee. Although Gerrie had a monster of a right hand, he lacked in a lot of other basic tools, as opposed to Quarry who was a much more complete fighter all around. My pick is Quarry by decision, or late round stoppage.

    Jerry would hustle Coetzee, and wear him out.

    We always assume that both fighters in these mythical fights are the best versions of themselves. In saying this, I believe Quarry would have too much on the ball for Coetzee. I liked Coetzee as a fighter, but Quarry would easily decision him, maybe even scoring a knockdown along the way to punctuate the scoring.

    Jerry fought a bit tougher amount of comp, probably decisions Gerrie in a close UD.
