    ive never truly saw anybody talk about how this fight would have turned out like. i mean norton practically gave ali 3 really though fights and won one of them, he also almost beat holmes. Norton may have been terrible against punchers like foreman but against boxers like ali and holmes he was a technical nightmare mostly due to his crab like fighting style he was also good at catching jabs and countered well against them basically taking away wlads biggest weapon

    Norton matched up very well with ali but wlad would be a way different fight, im going with wlad ko, he is strong,big, relatively good speed and norton cant do much to hurt him or win rounds imo.

    norton had a very shaky chin, wlad has in comparision to norton a mccall chin. norton had problems with punchers. and against wladimir he would fight the biggest puncher of all and the tallest and strongest

    be realistic, no one will, would be or could outbox the k bros. you can only tko them. especially they have both big problems with cuts. their skinn is way to thin

    So you are saying that Norton wins this fight hands down because Wlad's limited skill could do nothing against a highly skilled fighter . . . I agree with your assessment!

    haha, norton was slower, smaller, and had less power and less technical ability then wlad. and you really think he could be wlad???

    the only guys ever to give prime klitschkos big problems are since 1970:

    Ali, Foreman, Holmes, Tyson, Holyfield, Lewis

    norton was slower than Ali but alot faster than the Kbros. I think Norton, Shaver, Ruddock, bowe . . . etc would have a very good shot aswell.

    That's an achievement in itself considering how dumb you are :yep
    Please tell us about how Tony Tucker, Bonecrusher Smith, Tim Whiterspoon, etc, would dominate like the Klitschkos if they were around right now :nut

    I'm going with Norton on this one. Wlad is too tentative to back Kennie up. Norton would throw an jab up from the low position and be able to shift inside on Wladimir and go to work. Watch how a slightly passed it Norton fought Larry Holmes. He jabbed with Larry (who's MUCH better then Wlad) and took him to the wire.
