    Jack Dempsey vs Ken Norton

    Who do you think will win this interesting match-up? I think I'll go for Dempsey because of the power.

    If (would be) cruiserweight Jose Luis Garcia could KO Norton, I don't like his chances against Dempsey. Bad matchup for Norton.

      Scott did ever see that fight? I've tried to find it with no luck. Only the rematch. I also agree with you based on that fight among other things. Norton never did well with big punchers.

        Yes, that fight was shown on local LA television on the Olympic Auditorium weekly fights. The KO was legit.

          Yeah I've heard that Norton was out cold. Maybe that's one reason why Ali overlooked him.

            Norton would be intimidated by Dempsey's ferocity and power. Dempsey KO 5.

            You're gonna have to go a little higher than Ken Norton to take on Jack Dempsey.

                Two things Norton hated.......pace and power! Dempsey surely takes this one by stoppage!
