Walcott, by many accounts, beat the greatest heavyweight in history, then almost did it again against a top 5 all time heavyweight, while also...
And despite the losses he still has more good wins than Norton, as I said, Walcott avenged, Norton scrapes his chin off the canvas and went on to...
The guy who in the last 6 years of his career beat Baksi, Bivins, Murray, Oma, Ray, Maxim×2, Harold Johnson, Curtis Sheppard, Ezzard Charles×2,...
On that we agree, I just don't see why one immediately assumes that Walcott measures up less favourably against Ali than Norton did. I can accept...
