Right hand

I always thought his chin was overrated.
Thanks.

Quarry's jab was nowhere... Otherwise he beats George Chuvalo in a walk... has an easier time with Floyd Patterson... and stays with Jimmy Ellis.
Even Frazier out-jabbed Quarry. Eddie Machen out-jabbed Quarry... Machen was a 1950's Heavyweight who was fading... and he didn't have an excellent one.

Although he didn't have a jab himself, Quarry could counter the jab with a right or left hook.. If you put strength on your jab he could read it -- like Shavers, Lyle, Mac Foster, Tony Doyle, Buster Mathis, and Thad Spencer -- Quarry put counters on them.. Norton had a fair jab and Jerry couldn't read it.
