8-7 Norton imo.
I always had Holmes winning
The wicked shall die by there own wickedness.
How can you have Ken Norton winning 8-7 ? have you watched the fight ? or have you just watched the 15th round ? Ken Norton won the first round, then he lost the next 7 rounds easily not even debatable. He was completely outboxed and got a boxing lesson for the next 7 rounds.
Then Ken Norton made a good comeback in the last 6 rounds, but he still for certain lost the 13th round i believe it was, and another round which was more debatable. But theres no way Norton made a clean sweep in those last 6 rounds, and no way it was dead even going into the 15th round.
It's one of the most overrated close fights in history, people assume because the judges had it even. And because Norton won the last round, they assume its controversial, but if you actually watch the fight from start to finsh. It isn't really that close at all, Larry Holmes cleary won by atleast 9 rounds to 6.
