    Holyfield. Midbrawl he counters Norton with a punch he can't take.

    Good fight.

    This has the full distance written all over it. Norton when he wasn't backed up was bloody hard to beat and Evander isn't backing Ken up.

    Really close bout that could go either way. I like Ken's endurance over Evanders combination punching but it's a pick'em.

    I think Evander would out point him in a grueling fight. Evander had fast hands which is overlooked.
