    Two things: First, Norton was washed up by 1981. A shell of what he used to be. Second, whoever made this UA-cam channel is a thief with no imagination of his own who went and stole the name "Boxing After Dark" from HBO.

    How does everyone feel Howard would have done in a rematch? Same outcome, would he have done better or would Leonard have dominated after a better camp? Edit: Looking at the performances from both fighters after this match, I don't see how Leonard wouldn't have wiped the floor with Howard in a rematch.
