I watched that fight back in the day and probably 30x since then. It was a blowout, Ken won at least 10 rounds.

rusak · 01-01-2013, 12:52 AM

Norton won 9-6 or better.

Agree very bad decision that could of changed both their careers

Was at ringside watching the fight in 76 and scored it 8-7 for Norton. Since that time have watched it countless times and typically score it for Ali. Very close hard to score fight.

Asterion · 01-01-2013, 05:42 PM

I scored it 8-6-1 for Norton.

9-6 Norton. Thought it was easier to argue a clear Norton victory than a close Ali victory.

norton won 10 rounds, i think, but he was not beating up champ so he didn't deserve title IMO.

winning a majority of the rounds means you don't deserve the title?

Most of the rounds were close,but last time I watched it I had Norton winning by 9 - 6.

Ali sneaked it by 1 thanks to Nortons rubbish corner in the 15 th.

KuRuPT · 01-02-2013, 02:37 PM

9-6 Norton...

RockyJim · 01-02-2013, 07:24 PM

Probably 9-6 for Kenny Norton...Ali won that fight because of who he was...not for what he did in the ring that night. One of the N.Y. papers said:'If Ali won the fight last night...then the Japanese won WWII"...

What's everyone's scores for all three of their fights ? Mine are -

Fight one Norton 7 - 4 - 1

Fight two Ali 7 - 5

Fight three Norton 9 - 6
