~ The Skinny ~

Mike Quarry is now back up to the #7 WBA / #7 WBC Light-Heavyweight. 'Young' Mike wants to add
the California State Championship to his mantle.

Mike holds the NABF Light-Heavyweight Championship, and that Title will be on the line as well.

Both Mike Quarry and Ray White 'signed' the Fight Contact on January 2, 1973. This will give them
both 28-Days to prepare.

Note: On January 7th, Mike took a flight to Orlando, Florida to take a 'warm-up' bout on Wednesday
January 10th at the Sportatorium against 'club-fighting' journeyman.







Mike last fought only '19-Days' ago in Florida.
