Description: The story of boxing legend Jerry Quarry comes to life--from his 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 from 1968-1971.
