Could the Klitchko's have beaten this man?

i dont know.......ask wlad how purritty/sanders/brewster dented his chin.....cause i know ken norton wouldnt loose to the above mentioned.

 

Not really Wladimir is well out i give Vitali the most chance against Ken Norton!! Ken Norton is one hell of a fighter

 

I think they would both beat Norton.

Norton takes them out. If it wasnt for the Big 3 of the 70's (Ali, Foreman, Fraizer) then Ken would've been the best of that era along with Ron Lyles. Both were murderous punchers with good chins, Norton even beat Ali and broke his jaw.

 

atsch atsch :tired :tired :rofl :rofl :rofl Norton was as jello-jawed as a heavyweight gets and was blown away by every powerpuncher he ever faced. Good grief, even that lumbering oaf Cooney iced him in no time. One of the most overrated heavy's of all time. The massive, tall powerpunching Klits might well kill that prettyboy.

 

Norton was far past it by the time he met Cooney. Norton did very well against passive fighters like Wlad and Vitali. I see Norton beating Wlad but maybe not Vitali.

 

Mighty beats anyone

 

pretty fair assumption:good

 

Yeah, he took several rounds and was soundly outboxed by some chump named Lorenzo Zanon before he finally got the knockout. Either Klit just boxes him from distance, batters him and back him up with their power left jabs and finishes him anytime they want to with overhand rights. Classic case of overestimating old time boxers. He beat up on an over the hill post-prison Ali so he gets a lot of false credit. Norton was tailor-made to get K.Oed by either Klit.

 

Considering what Ali did afterwards, it is a valid win over one of the greatest. He arguably beat him in the third fight against Ali. Norton also beat a good boxer named Jimmy Young and gave Larry Holmes the fight of his life when he was past his best.

 

Young and Holmes or the old Ali Norton fought were not powerpunchers. Ali used to joke in interviews about his lack of K.O. power and wished he had more power. Young like Chris Byrd was a defensive wizard and a crafty boxer but couldn't crack an egg. Holmes also lacked true K.O. power and took ages to stop chumps like Frank Scott and Scott Ledoux. Both Klits would slaughter weak opposition like that. Norton got simply overun and destroyed by powerpunchers and the huge Klits not only have tremendous power but are skilled boxers. BTW I favor Holmes over both Klits as he had tremendous boxing talent, great heart and ring generalship and unlike Norton had an iron chin.

 

They'd beat Ken, but Norton was a very good fighter in his time.
