I would like to ask anyone that I was confused with Ken Norton's Birthday when he was born between August 9, 1943 and August 9, 1945.

Which year was Ken Norton was born on between 1943 and 1945?

Hmmm, let's see. Between 1943 and 1945? I'm gonna take a wild stab and say . . . 1944!

In all honesty, this is a very good (and SERIOUS) question, and I'd like to know the answer too if anyone has it. Thanks.

I did a quick Google search on Ken Norton, all the hits that mentioned his birthdate listed it as August 9, 1945 except one that listed it as August 9, 1943.

However, I did find an excerpt of Ken's autobiography in which he himself says it is August 9, 1943. I guess I'd take what he says above the others.

(Turn to the third page in the excerpt.)

There's a theory going round that it was big conspiracy, and he's actually only 15 years old, but he's convinced people that he is older, hence the confusion between 1943 and 1945.
