        Jack Johnson is without a dought a top 10 P4P.


        He cleaned out the divison on his way to the title and was champ for 6 years.


        Not to mention he was champ in 1908......and African American. He had to put up with more crap than any other champ in the history of the sport.

                Oh well, I can't remember where I read that Quarry was in line and that George essentially took the 5 million...and who wouldn't....for what he thought would be an easier fight.

                Oh well, thank again, as always, for the insight.
                Boooo @ K-Dogg for conceding to Sabbath so easily, and to do so because of information posted that was both inaccurate at times and incomplete.

                  Well, what am I supposed to do when I don't have any readily available contradictory documents on hand?

                  Where have you been?! I needed you Yogi....I am merely an apprentice when it comes to little known specifics. "I rememember and I know otherwise" doesn't combat well against documentation.


                  I'll go thrash myself now.

                      If you are in any way referring to the a proposed Foreman vs. Quarry heavyweight title bout that was tentatively scheduled for June 20, 1974, at Madison Square Garden, it was never was brought to contract and therefore I fail to see the alleged 'ducking' of Quarry by Foreman unless you would like me to quote George Foreman, "Had he punched with Ellis and boxed Frazier, he would have been champion. When I was heavyweight champion of the world, I purposely dodged him."

                      Sure George whatever.
