🥊 Jerry Quarry, a tough and experienced heavyweight ranked #5, aimed to prove himself once again against one of the division's best after his impressive wins.

Norton was the #4 contender and Quarry was #5.
Quarry received $185,000 and Norton got $100,000.
In early 1974, Quarry complained that the top black heavyweights would not fight him. "It is a black conspiracy," Quarry said. "I'm being boycotted by Ali, Norton and Foreman." He said they wanted to "leave the little white boy out of it."
"I respect him as a fighter, but I don't like him one bit," Norton said of Quarry before the fight. "I don't like him because he's a prejudiced man."
Quarry retired after losing to Norton but later returned to the ring.
The 1998 Holiday Issue of The Ring Magazine ranked Ken Norton #22 and Jerry Quarry #27 on the list The 50 Greatest Heavyweights of All-Time.
The original bout on this undercard was signed as Ken Norton vs. Oscar Bonavena. However, Bonavena pulled out on February 27th citing promoters couldn't assure him a win over Norton would guarantee him a title fight with Ali. Bonavena was also being investigated at this time by the Central Bank of Argentina on tax issues that would drastically alter his purse for the Norton fight. On March 3rd Jimmy Young was signed to fight Norton in a 10 rounder, but MSG found the little-known Young to be an unacceptable opponent. Finally, on March 6th, Jerry Quarry was signed to fight Norton in a 12 rounder. 🥊 Become a sponsor & get even more explosive fight highlights / @luckypunch01
