Ken Norton

摘要

In the mid-1960s, there was a lot of talk about a great fighter out of boxing's amateur ranks named Ken Norton. If Norton hadn't gone pro in 1967, he probably would have been an Olympic gold medalist. Norton, who died on Sept. 18 at the age of 70, had a weird style of crossing his right hand over his face and throwing a wild left hand. But he had a purpose with that. You couldn't get out of the way. He would bend down, you'd follow him with your head, and he'd throw that overhand right. He'd hit you hard, then he'd hit you with five or six more. Eventually, he would wear you down. It was a very good style.
