Pinklon Thomas vs Ken Norton
Pinklon Thomas vs Ken Norton
Hard 1, but I see Thomas winning by late TKO. Tho Norton could win on points.
Re: Pinklon Thomas vs Ken Norton
I think with Norton's pressure and conditioning he gets the win in this one.
As Barry said above, Norton tends to do a lot better against the Pinklon
style of fighter, and while Thomas has a good jab and a handy right hand
it would not be enough to keep Norton from landing some hard shots whether
as counters or leads.
I see Norton getting a good UD. Thomas slows up after 5 rounds, his punch
rate drops off which allows Norton a comfortable lead.

Norton was the better fighter by a wide margin, easy win for him. Thomas had a good chin so it's either a wide ud or a late tko for Norton.

Norton, even tho thomas was impressive in the 80's. the competitors in the 70s were just better and norton was top 5 material.
