Ken Norton Dies

[Anthony342]

Norton was well liked, wasn't he?

Of course he was a great boxer, alis kryptonite. But yeah he's dead for a few years now, as is Ron lyle, henry cooper and alot of alis contemporaries. Out of the big names all that's left is 2 georges. Sucks we are losing all those great heavyweights from the best era for heavies.

I am friends with a female boxing trainer on facebook, she posted the same thing yesterday. I had to tell her, it's been a few years now, lol.

Say it isn't so!

Yep, penitentiary 2.

Nice. Another franchise I have on my favorites list I need to watch. Caught part 3 on TV years ago and rented the original in the early '90s.
