"Jerry Quarry of Bellflower, Calif., the WBA's No. 1 ranked heavyweight, scored a 5th round TKO over Aaron Eastling of Minneapolis Sunday in the scheduled 10 round feature. Eastling, 11th ranked by the WBA, was no match for Quarry, but managed to stay out of range for three rounds by backing away. In the 4th round, Quarry found the range and dropped Eastling twice - with a left hook and an uppercut. The bout was stopped in the next round when Quarry let loose a barrage of punches that Eastling could not avoid." -Associated Press
