I'll take Norton, at the very least he would show up in shape. With Witherspoon, you never knew. Well actually you did know, you just knew Tim was coming in overweight.
Norton takes a comfortable decision here. He outjabs and outlands the hesitant Witherspoon, who never ceases to disappoint me.
The body work of Kenny would pay big big dividends on this guy. All tim would do after about 6 rounds would be to cover up and play defense to make it to the final bell. But he sure would not like the 2 handed assault to the breadbasket whatsoever. I also think Kenny's oddball jab lands. It came from a strange angle and was nice and long. I think it lands and Tim wouldn't solve it and get confused and go into one of his passive type walk through the motions efforts. I would have liked to have seen Tim get some more a+ efforts against top fighters and especially would have liked to have seen him "solve" more guys to beat this guy. I sure don't think Witherspoon solves that style of Norton's and he sure is not in the same ballpark conditioning wise.
That's right. An entertaining battle would ensue with this one,but Ken would take it by about three rounds on the cards if it's a twelve rounder. And a possible late stoppage over fifteen.
A great match up. I would go with Witherpsoon late. Norton didn't have the chin to take power shots, and Witherspoon had a very good right hand.
A GOOD right hand indeed,but would it have caried enough power to have knocked Ken back on his heels often enough ?
