Hi Guys,

Nice set of reasoning there Rocco, I'm really getting into your little alternative history that you've got going here.

Finally got my thumb out and decided to rate the next fighter in the Norton career replay. Norton's ninth fight would be against Pedro Rene Sanchez, a hard hitting soft chinned slugger from Miami.

Norton's Ninth Fight - 1969-03-31

Pedro Rene Sanchez - 6-13-0 (5)

Sanchez was a very limited fighter from Miami, FL. A nice punch gave him five stoppage wins but overall he tallied a loosing record against very limited opposition. The only fighter in the game that he faced was Ken Norton (he fought Dave Zyglewicz as well but he's not rated yet...). Norton would pound him into submission with a second round knockout to take his record to 9-0-0 (8).
