    ~ Mike Quarry ~ 'Back On The Road And Searching For Success'

    22 year-old Light-Heavyweight - Mike Quarry is now in the hands of New York
    Fight Manager and Trainer - Gil Clancy.

    The young Light-Heavyweight from Anaheim, California > left the West-Coast for
    Florida in March of this year. Mike was promoted by Pete Ashlock of Orlando.

    But after only '1-Bout' {April 4th}, Mike made a move North, to New York City.

    Now, the talented but still searching boxer will be under the guidance of Gil Clancy.

    Gil Clancy >
    "Mike has been in 'a fog' since getting Knocked Out by Bob Foster last year {June 27, 1972}."

    "If he follows my instructions, I'll be able to rebuild him and get him back into contention
    within a year."

    "The kid is 'head-strong', and he wanted me to get him a rematch with Bob Foster for this
    year {July 1973}. I told him that he was 'out-of-his-mind'. I told him that he's still not in
    the type of condition {mentally} to Challenge Bob Foster."

    "If you want to beat Bob Foster, you have to have a 'fight plan', proper preparation and
    most importantly, a sound mind. Otherwise, that guy will take your head off. The last thing
    I want, is for Mike to get 'plastered' again."
