Who Remembers Ali/Norton Fight #3?

namathfan

I was only 19 at the time and only vaguely remember the fight. Having just watched the 30 for 30 short film it appears Norton got robbed.

Anybody have an idea of the odds and was there a sense that Norton had won the fight?

Thanks.

You are are a few years older then I but me and my buddies went to the stadium just to hang out at stans sports bar, yes we drank there with fake id's even though they didnt check....we decided to try and get into the fight ...we were walking around the stadium offering ushers 10 bucks each and with no takers....about the 5th one said sure and all five of us one after the other gave the man 10 bucks....we sat in the upper deck smoking wacking weed , dont remember much of the fight , but years later after watching it again , most every boxing person in the know said norton won the fight.
Not many people there ...couldve sat anywhere....

odds were 8 to 5 from what i see

and on a side note , we did the same thing to get into the world series vs the dodgers in 1976....
