The least respected fighters that would beat Jerry Quarry

:dead

 

Quarry is top 25 all-time to me.Jerry would ko jeremy williams Carl the truth. Jerry kod Mac Foster (top 10 at time) Shavers 1 round,beat Ron Lyle (top 30 ALLTIME) !st Smokin Joe fight Jerry was right there. He was good,capable fighter

 

See the highlighted ones.

 

This is all kinda bull****. Obviously, given a drugged-up Quarry with a broken back a'la versus Norton, a lot of guys can beat him.

However, if you phrase the question wherein both fighters are prime and in good health, Jeremy Williams, Bert Cooper and Henry Cooper, among many others listed here, are not going to win.

 

Good post, Quarry was a good boxer, but plenty could beat him, especially against men he'd have stylistic issues against

 

We remember Quarry today because he's so enjoyable to watch. He looks like the sort of heavyweight that we like to believe existed in the 60's-70's "golden age"-- small, yes, but also durable, fast handed, mobile, hard-hitting, competent at multiple ranges, and more "skilled"-looking than his 2000's successors. He moves like a lighter weight fighter.

Quarry had a photogenic style, and he looked great when he was "on". Compare him to somebody like Vitali lurching all over the ring, or even a clubber like Shavers. Quarry might not have always been effective, but his style looked right.

 

edit : d below was my post after i forgot that i already posted in this thread and this time bothered less .



Oliver McCall (but only if he is in 1 of d Maskaev/Lewis moods) , Orlin Norris , Corrie Sanders , Carl Williams , Jeremy Williams (50-50 in this case) .
It would have been interesting if Quarry & Stander could both b rejuvenated and put inside d ring .
Chris Byrd under refereeing like he had vs Tua would have probably outpointed him as well .

 

Had Quarry done better vs. Ali or Frazier maybe I'd feel differently. Getting stopped by Chuvalo was bad (yes, I've seen it). He couldn't get it done vs. non-great HW titlist Ellis. IMO, he lost twice to a faded Patterson. Hell, I'll even give him a free pass for getting easily outboxed by old vet Machen on his way up the rankings. This is not the resume of a top 25 HW.[/quote]

He didnt lose to Patterson. first one was a draw (Patterson down twice, Quarry one). Second fight he won (Patterson down twice again). I have Quarry`s fight worn gloves from the second fight :yep

 

People who says that Patterson won both fights doesnt know about the California point system..

 

I think the use of that particular scoring system is why most people think Patterson should have won. Either way, Quarry did very little to win the rounds aside from the ones he scored knockdowns in and was lucky to escape without a loss in both fights.

 

Every1 who dismisses d truth should remember that he stopped both Bert Cooper & Jesse Ferguson and never lost 2 Holmes despite having a fight against him .
