Ken Norton VS Joe Frazier

I have no idea why these two men did not fight. Joe Frazier was born1944-01-12 and Ken Norton was born1943-09-08... they fought in the same era and also fought many of the same people. This is the biggest fight that did not happen in the 70's.

I bet Don King had something to do with that.

It would have been great though.

The Ali - Frazier 3 fight is on now.

True, I was always a Frazier fan.
I like his aggresive style.

I always thought in this fight that Joe landed harder punches

It is amazing once you learn boxing how much Ali cheated and never was called on it. You have only 6 legal punches in boxing...Ali threw a back hand punch in every fight and that is illegal...he was never called on it once. Pluss he held more than John Ruiz.

Isn't it also illegal to hold down the back of the boxers head?

Yes espically if you hit him when you are doing it.

I once did that when we had our "boxing fights" at work.
It does give you an advantage.

If you have HBO turn it on...they are replaying last weeks fight between that hot little chico Oscar De la Hoya and that ugly pig Ricardo Mayorga...puls a live Ricky Hatton fight...Hatton is one of the best 147Lb fighters in a decade and also an exciting and very active fighter.

Doesnt he want a go at Mayweather before he retires? That won't even be a fight.
