    that's some mistake. now you know why I'm so critical of your posts. I notice that when you make a mistake, it goes against the guy a guy like Norris

    and when you bring up Brown, you only make reference to the first bout but not the second. That was intentional and NOT an accident

    see? Now THAT's HATE!

    moreover, you made other noxious claims such as Ray is better than Brown and McCallum

    can you prove it?

    Did you see Brown - Trice 1, 2?

    you make claims about Brown out of his prime but I doubt you even saw Brown IN his prime

    You are quickly running out of credibility in front of the others, something which IMO, was very much in doubt from your first post.

    Don't think any objective person that reads what I wrote would question my credibility. But you on the other hand...... And I can say this with all confidence Ive forgotten more about the fight game then you would ever know. Esp since your making T.Norris as the G.o.a.t lol.

    well since you were the one that brought it up, why shouldnt I?

    maybe you have exclusive rights?

    Let's get this straight: Kalule, lalonde, Bonds, Price, Green, Finch, Howard were straight ahead human icebergs/punching bags made to order for Ray Leonard

    even hagler, Ray didnt get to him until 1987 when he gained a sudden interest after years of putting Hags on his ignore list

    same as Micheal Nunn

    Terry would have no problems with ANY of them or, as we saw, against Ray Leonard himself

    it's like you got two fast cars but one is faster than the other (more powerful engine, greater torque, better traction, fuel, etc)

    you can only have one winner so one is bound to outspeed the other and as we have learned throughout history, Ray Leonard is inadequate when it comes to pressuring opponents

    He was not Julian Jackson, or Simon Brown, or even Mike McCallum who Flash THINKS fought and beat Terry Norris!

    Hasnt history taught you anything?

    after reading thru what you wrote they would. I don't think it was an honest mistake but an attempt to deceive me. Unfortunately for you, it backfired.

    This is typical of SRL fanatics. I personally think you have an agenda and your dishonesty proves it

    You'll never get anywhere with this guy

    He posts some good stuff in non-Norris/Leonard threads, but when it comes to Norris, and especially this dream matchup, forget it.

    Subjectivity pours out of him like a busted dam.

    He gets defensive, and his efforts to demean and belittle those who disagree with him make it even more obvious of his subjectiveness, if there was any doubt.

    Certain posters - like Foxy, Wass1985, this guy, Swag and Foreman Dempsey can post sensibly in certain threads. But, in others they let emotions (negative) get in the way.

    Now, I can get a little emotional about my favorites and I've seen others do it, but these guys get so emotional that it inhibits their ability to clear headedly ****yze.

    Sooooooooo now your paranoid? If I was trying to deceive you I wouldn't have admitted to being wrong. By the way Im not a Ray Leonard fanatic, but I'm not a hater either. Unlike you I can dislike a fighter as a person but recognize his obvious talent. You have so much hatred in your heart its kinda scary to be honest with you. So take your toys and run home.

    Sir I'm inclined to agree, its so unfortunate that some can't see the forest for that one tree that blocks their view. Talking about loss causes.

    SRL was just a much more technically adept fighter. Much better mobility, quicker, greater boxer, much better chin. Norris had poor whiskers and having durability is a must to be rated as an ATG.

    Exactly what did Leonard achieve at 154 to make you think he beats a prime Norris at the weight? If you are desperate enough to claim beating Kalule cuts it, you can only be a fanboy, and dismissed as such.

    Finch and Howard were nonentities, Hagler was well on the way down from his prime. Hearns 2 and Lalonde were catch weight fights, and Duran was a fat shadow of his former self.

    So again, what is it about Leonard that makes you think he beats a prime 154 Norris?

    WRONG.

    Do you actually posses a brain, or do you just parrot cliches like a moron?

    So every ATG automatically beats every other " prime " non ATG fighter regardless of size or weight differences do they?

    So why didn't Leonard rematch Hearns at 154 instead of fighting Finch 5 months later? Tommy had already gone up in weight and was about to have his 2nd fight by then.
