Ken Norton died
I don't know how many remember Ken Norton the heavy weight boxer that broke Ali's jaw. He died yesterday at 70 years old from congestive heart failure.

He did well against Ali because he could fight moving to the right. That's also what made Rocky Marciano so good. RIP

My wife and my parents would go and watch him train for his one and only title defense(Lost to Larry Holmes) at Gilman Hot Springs Resort just outside of Hemet in So Cal. He was a good guy and very good to his fans.
The Resort is now the International Headquarters of the Church of Scientology |
