KEN NORTON was a fixture in the heavyweight ranks during a time that many consider the finest era of the division. Norton, who turned pro in 1967, burst onto the scene in 1973 when he earned a split decision and the NABF heavyweight title with a 12-round decision over Muhammad Ali, which was only Ali's second loss. And, it was in this fight that Norton broke Ali's jaw.
