			Ken Norton's stunning defeat of Muhammad Ali in 1973 as a 5-1 underdog left an impression on me as a youth. I still remember watching that fight on TV as a teenager. Norton's victory over Ali is a great illustration of how one can beat the odds, achieve their goals and reach their fullest potential using the principles contained in the book, ''Think & Grow Rich'', a book that Norton attributes as being very inspirational for him on the road to becoming the second man to defeat "The Greatest," Muhammad Ali. Norton also attributes what he learned from ''Think & Grow Rich'' for empowering him to overcome severe adversity and get back to a normal life after he sustained permanent injury from a near-fatal car accident in 1986. Ken Norton won the "Napoleon Hill Award" for positive thinking in 1973.

	Ken Norton is my top sports hero of all time. I have a lot of respect for Norton-he is a classy guy and a credit to boxing. I was very delighted and pleased to see that Norton received the Hall of Fame honors which he so richly deserves, and which he obviously earned. Norton was one of the best athletes of the 1970's-when I was a teenager and my peers and I looked up to him as a role model. We saw him break Ali's jaw, blast Bobick in one round and show clearly what a champion he was against Young and Holmes. Ken Norton shared in his autobiography "''Going the Distance: The Ken Norton Story"'' that he read ''Think & Grow Rich'' and it changed his life. Norton's book states he was prescribed to read ''Think & Grow Rich'' after he suffered his first boxing defeat in 1970 and had to start over. He then went on to beat Muhammed Ali for the NABF title in 1973. Norton shares in his book that he read Think & Grow Rich repeatedly during his career and he became a stonger person for it. Ken Norton won a Napoleon Hill Award for positive thinking, and became WBC Heavyweight Champion of the World in 1978.
