'In Joe Louis's day they were slow and they trotted around. In our era, Ali was a boxer, man, very quick. And nowadays, fighters are bigger and stronger. But in my opinion the fighters in our era, in the 70s, were the greatest group of fighters ever assembled.'

That is an interesting thing for Norton to say, given that he was knocked out by a guy that weighed 188 pounds.

It always goes both ways… Norton didn’t have a bad chin Ali was a goodpuncher… what does that make Garcia? A 188lbs mega puncher… like Marciano? NO that doesn’t count.
