I agree his jab was best can easily make a argument he was the greatest of all time in his ere held title 7years who did that didn't break the record he wanted to because of mike spinks who won all those fights straight without a lost how many heavyweights got off the canvas after being knock down come back to win he got dropped by snipes and shavers came back to win and was in numerous wars what a fighter and he saved his money he.owns half of Easton pa he was the greatest in his time remember he was Ali's sparring partner so all that revenge for Ali stuff was crap Ali hung around to long Holmes hung around to long didn't take away from their greatness though

This was as good a Heavyweight Title fight as you'll ever see. I mean there was virtually no clinching and holding like we see in so many fights. Both Men just gave there all and it could have went either way. I remember watching this fight. People forget that Going into 1978 Larry was 26-0 and He had to fight Earnie Shavers in March of 78. Leon Spinks was getting title shot against Ali in Feb of 78. Ken Norton had defeated Jimmy Young in November of 77 in an elimination match. Leon Spinks only had 7 fights but he was a gold Medalist and a name. Larry had been a top 10 Heavyweight but Ali had no interest in fighting Holmes. Even when Ali regained the WBA Title from Spinks He retired shortly after. He didn't start calling out Holmes until two years later because He needed money. This fight though between Holmes and Norton was between the two best fighters in 1978. Muhammad Ali didn't really want to fight Norton for a fourth time. That's why he took the Spinks fight because he was delaying it as long as he could. This was Norton's last hurrah as he was never the same after this fight. He would only have a couple more wins as he would suffer devastating first round knockout losses to Earnie Shavers and Gerry Cooney. Larry would go on to be recognized as Heavyweight Champion for the next 7 years making 20 successful title defenses before losing a close decision to Michael Spinks in September of1985.

Holmes took it to Norton. I never saw a fighter win a fight with 14 seconds to go. Without a knockout. Holmes was a hellva champion 🏆.

That fight could've went either way, but Holmes stood toe to toe, at times in the mid to later rounds Holmes looked much like Ali.

Don't think people understand boxing if they thought Norton won, he wasn't even close. He did clearly win the Ali fight at Yankee stadium though, thought that was robbery. But this he needed a K.O after the 10th, let alone the 13th which was two point round to Holmes.

You do realize this this fight was decided by 1 point! Review the scoring and it will clue you as to why people thought Norton won.

@@leewilliams6673 I know the "official scores" and they are SO accurate all time. Just like the Cooney v Holmes cards. In this case Holmes took the first 7, drew 9 won 10, hence fight over unless like Holmes hater Cosel said before the last bell "I don't agree with Bill (Slayton) I think a knockout is the only way to win..." Never mind what Wikipedia tells you, it really wasn't close as Ali-Norton 2 or 3. Norton was 35 by then and never got over the Yankee Stadium decision, he even said straight after the fight he let him build up a big lead and left it too late. After more decades than I care to admit being a student and a scholar of boxing, scoring a fight fairly, with the biased commentators on and off (it's amazing what they can sell) if you can count to 8, especially if it only takes you 10 rounds to get there that's all. I admit it was tough but that close, nah. It was a way to give even rounds to the champion, that's all In my opinion, I think Holmes was hard done by, lined up a fight with Young (who should have been the champ, think he squeaked past Norton in a much closer fight) but he lost twice to Occasio, who Holmes beat while waiting to give Norton another chance if he too could beat Shavers, but fought Earnie again instead. Yes these are my opinions, and that's all. Holmes won this by 4 points minimum, 5 if you give round 13 2pts to Holmes. However if some people are niave to think Ali really knocked out Liston in the rematch with the superb pretend acting by Liston rolling over and over with a right that couldn't ever be replicated in any other fights, then I'm happy to be honest to myself, and not a fanboy of Ali, Holmes or Tyson. Holmes is the only one who never gets enough credit, and the other two get far too much. (As Boxers,)

Well it must have been close as it was a split decision. Unless you're saying that the judges don't understand boxing?

I think Holmes knew he had won on points, and wanted to prove/ demonstrate that he was not just an Olympic boxer like Ali, but could give and take a punch, and was a 'fighter', so he stood toe-to-toe with a 'professional heavyweight'.
