    Henry Clark was stopped three times... Shaver's, Liston and Norton.

    He was never off his feet however? The Norton stoppage is listed as a KO.

    Another good match for Kenny would've been Bonavena in that 73-75 timeframe. Oscar just might back him up and he had those whiskers to go the distance.

    Big thing w/ Norton was that he was an independent. Pretty much everything on a 1 fight basis. I'm sure if he signed w/ Arum or later on King, those decisions might go his way./ Hard sport when you are fighting house fighters.

    Muhammad still managed to pull his share of chicks, however.

    He should of done better in the acting field.At least he hooked up with Pam Grier on film:good.
