Muhammad Ali vs. Jerry Quarry

Muhammad Ali and Jerry Quarry fought two boxing matches with each other. The first bout took place on October 26, 1970; and the second on June 27, 1972. Ali won both fights through technical knockouts.

The first fight was stopped in the third round; and the second in the seventh round. The first Ali-Quarry fight is considered particularly notable because it was the first time Ali was fighting after his suspension from boxing.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
