Ken Norton Vs Lamon Brewster

I really like Brewster to pull off the upset here.

The punch the cross arm defense of Norton is open to is a left hook. wide open for it. And Brewster was a guy that was the rare type to grit his teeth in there and absorb whatever the other guy threw and fire back immediately with that nasty left hook. And he keeps that power throughout the fight.

Norton would outland him but he sure won't out-tough the guy in the absorption department. And Lamon won't have to chase the guy down which is important also & a guy with footwork and angles is a lot tougher for a Brewster than a guy right in front of him every round.

I think Norton gets badly ko'd here after about the 5th round. He might go out like Krasniqi did. Or badly hurt like Golata and once knocked down, it'd be all over quick for Kenny.

A nice lose the battles but win the war type fight and sooner or later, Norton is going to get clipped by a nasty left hook from this guy.

 

I like Lamon Brewster, but Ken Norton was on a different level.

 

Yep. Kenny looked real good against the hitters. Lets see Foreman. Earnie. Garcia ko'd the guy long befor that and just whoever bought into that guy? ****ey disaster and there were people actually picking Norton in that one for some reasons I'll never understand.

And he was saved by the bell in that Ledoux fight or there'd be another koby result. I thought that was the call at the end of the night just like everyone else and was astonished to see that. And Who was the best ko victim Ledoux ever had anyway?

Hurt Kenny and back him up and it's all over. He has zero survival skills. What he can do is hang in there with the guys w/o a mean left hook. That's guys like Holmes/Ali/Young type boxers. But not the hitters.

 

The Brewster that came out breathing fire agianst Golota very possibly could blitz Norton in similar fashion. If he doesn't, then Norton probably would take over with the jab and pound out a close decision, since Brewster had difficulty sustaining his intensity over the course of a fight.
