商品簡介
The story of boxing legend Jerry Quarry has it all: rags to riches, thrilling fights against the giants of?the Golden?Age of Heavyweights?(Ali?twice, Frazier?twice, Patterson, Norton), a racially and politically electric sports era, the thrills and excesses of fame, celebrities, love, hate, joy, and pain. And tragedy.
Like the man he fought?during two?highly controversial fight cards in 1970 and ’72?Muhammad Ali?boxing great Jerry Quarry was to suffer gravely. He died at age fifty-three, mind and body ravaged by Dementia Pugilistica.In Hard Luck, ?Irish” Jerry Quarry comes to life?from his Grapes of Wrath days as the child of an abusive father in the California migrant camps?to those as the undersized heavyweight slaying giants on his way to multiple title bouts and the honor of being the World’s Most Popular Fighter in ’68, ’69, ’70, and ’71. The story of Jerry Quarry is one of the richest in the annals of boxing, and through painstaking research and exclusive access to the Quarry family and its archives, Steve Springer and Blake Chavez have captured it all.?
