      Of course his biggest win was Ali, but Norton was impressive against Quarry and Bobick. In full disclosure Quarry wasn't in the best of shape and Bobick was exposed as having no ability to take a punch.

        He had several good fights but he was really superb in Ali 1, Ali 3 & the Holmes fight. I'd say Ali 2 as well, but that final round from Ali really sealed it!

        Stick Norton in with any decent orthodox heavyweight technician with anything less than Foreman/Shavers/Cooney like power in history and he'd run them close if not beat them.

        Tunney, Schmelling, Charles, Walcott, Patterson, Michael Spinks & Holyfield would all struggle with Norton at his best.
