Promoter Eyes Patterson Quarry Rematch in Ring
Promoter Mickey Davies said he hopes to stage a rematch between heavyweights Floyd Patterson and Jerry Quarry after their draw at Memorial Coliseum in front of about 27 000 fans. Quarry must recover from a badly swollen eye before plans advance, while Patterson praised Quarry and expressed interest in another bout. Patterson was knocked down twice in the second round but rallied, with a seventh round knockdown and a gory eye cut shaping the bout.
