    Duane Bobick, the only fighter I've ever seen get knocked out by a punch to the Adam's Apple by Ken Norton in 1977 round one.

    Ali for me, because he was the first boxer I heard of as a kid. I used to stay up late at night and listen to the after round summaries of his fights on the a.m. radio, as I was supposed to be asleep during those late hours.

    In fact, on the way back from a July 4 weekend excursion to Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, we stopped at the Ali Center/Museum in Louisville Sunday afternoon.

    Nice place, free admission, I'll be going back.
