This is very sad,shocking news...doesn't seem yesterday he was fighting Hagler for the World middleweight championship... Time is moving too...
Apart from the actual obvious trolling by the thread starter, I actually find this thread distasteful. Ken Norton has only been dead a few...
Choklab - Good post fella, as always you make some great points. However, I've just watched the finish of the fight again and I still think...
Funnily enough I recently watched round 7 of this fight on youtube. It was a bad KD & the way Holmes staggered into the turnbuckle proved how far...
