Douglas at his best (the Tyson version obviously) was a sublime textbook boxer, but Norton always gave hell to boxers. I'd pick Kenny by dec.

Norton by UD or late stoppage depending on which Douglas shows up.

The very best Buster gives Kenny all he wants, but I think Ken's consistent toughness, and ability to do well against guys who had Buster's best assets bodes well for him here. I think Ken takes a UD in a 12 rounder. In a 15 rounder he'd stop him.

If it's the Douglas who fought Mike Tyson, that man could have beaten almost every heavyweight in history. But if it's not, I still think it would be a pretty exciting fight while it lasts with Norton winning by TKO in the 11th or so.
