Ken "Jawbreaker" Norton, 6' 2 ¾", 220lbs, made boxing history in 1973 when he met Muhammad Ali for the North American Boxing Federation title, and won, breaking Ali's jaw in the process. Norton's professional ring career began in 1967 at the age of 23, and it was six years later that he finally got his shot at the title. Going up against Ali in 1973, Norton seized the opportunity and won, in what boxing experts call one of the most memorable fights of all time. This victory was followed the same year with another bout against Ali, and this time Ken lost a split decision. The two heavyweights met a final time in 1976, for the title, Norton lost this bout in a highly disputed split decision. Ken was inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame in 1992, and is currently working on a new book, as well as making international appearances, and speaking engagements. read more
