but he was awarded the title when Ali was awarded a rematch w Spinks after losing a fight that never should have happened because Norton was supposed to get the match. Ali knew he could never beat Norton at that point so he broke the rules and that’s why Norton got the belt by defeating the other top heavyweight in Young. Ali was the bad guy here not Norton.
