"California's, Jerry Quarry, too young and too fast, punched out a unanimous decision over veteran British heavyweight Brian London last night in 10 rounds before a capacity crowd of more than 10,000 in a fight that was one-sided but full of action. The 21 year old Quarry was unable to floor his 32 year old opponent, but there was little doubt from the 2nd round on about the outcome." -Associated Press
- Unofficial AP scorecard - 8-1 Quarry

- "Jerry is a nice boy, but he will never be a world class fighter. If he was a world class fighter, he would have destroyed me. Seven years ago, I would have destroyed him." -Brian London
- "London has no punch. He's awkward. I thought he'd punch much harder. He's so awkward, I couldn't get my left jab working." -Jerry Quarry
