Cooney floors Norton in 54 seconds at MSG
Gerry Cooney overwhelmed Ken Norton in 54 seconds at Madison Square Garden, stopping the former WBC champion and moving to 25-0 with 21 KOs. Norton, 7-2-1 in recent fights, retires? The bout boosts Cooney toward a planned title shot at Mike Weaver, amid legal promotion issues. The crowd of about 11,000 saw Cooney weigh 225 and earn an easy million-dollar payday.
