    That up jab of Norton was ****ing Ali up. Ali was really past it though.

    both Norton 1 and 2 were pre Foreman though, possibly Ali's greatest win

    For some reason I was thinking of just the 3rd encounter in the Bronx when I made that comment. I guess bc of the controversy in the 3rd fight between Pac and JMM. Most thought Norton won just like most think JMM won.

    He beat Norton once clearly. Besides that I see your point. Manny is a very good fighter, some say great. Either way that doesn't change because he was outboxed on Saturday. He will always struggle with guys who can box and move effectively, doesn't mean he can't beat them, but it won't ever be easy as the guy who stands and trades, or comes straight in, or covers up for defense instead of countering.

    No one is diminishing Pacs accomplishments, people are just mad that JMM got screwed three times vs same fighter.
