Guys I am curious to know more about this man, I have seen his fight against Quarry, he looked big, some what stiff but powerful with some what sound defence.

I have seen minimal clips against Ali.

I would like to see more of his fights. Would you guys be able to tell me abit more about him

I remember reading an article about Archie Moore predicting him to be the next big thing.

Thanks again

Kym

I would also like to see some of his pre-Quarry fights.

Vs Ali, he looks like a completly different fighter than vs Quarry; awkward, flailing style . . no sound punching technique. I remember reading an interview in which he said by the time of the Ali fight he was fighting with a major back problem (something like a slipped disk) which would help explain it, b/c he looks awful by comparison,

I could tell at a glance just as his Madison Square Garden fight with Quarry began that Mac Foster had been screwed up by a retarded boxing 'trainer' for that fight.

He came out with his hands high against his face like someone who had just had his first lesson at the YMCA from someone who never had a fight in his life.

Foster would have been much better off fighting his normal way.

Quarry also had similar good luck against Ron Lyle in Madison Square Garden. Lyle froze in what was his Madison Square Garden and East Coast debut.
