    Ken Norton is top 10 H2H ever in HW

    Beat Ali at least two times. Broke Ali's jaw and Ali was just 31 in the first fight.

    Almost beat "prime Holmes at his 35".

    Beat Quarry and Young.

    He is one of the best fighters ever against pure boxers. He had hamster chin and lost to huge punchers like Foreman and Shavers because of that. Chin was his only clear weakness.

        We will never know. But my money would be on Usyk. I honestly think Kenny gives Fury more trouble. Fury likes to fight going back but given that Fury has added more to his game as of late, maybe he takes Kenny out, too. Kenny gave Ali a lot of trouble but given how he got smashed so many times, it's just hard to hold him in high regard and Ali was no spring chicken when Kenny gave him trouble.

          Hes great vs the slick boxer style but is too vulnerable against punchers to be a top 10 H2H Heavyweight

            He could steal some rounds from boxer Fury. Brawler/grappler Fury is another story. He has learned how to fight at his front foot. Norton would get mauled.
