Norris had turned into a KO artist by then and picked on the smaller welterweights even, but this time it backfired. There were plenty of big fights at middleweight for Norris to take, most importantly the Julian Jackson rematch.
No knockdowns and not a lot of super clean hard punches. Jones outboxed him for sure but hardly beat him down.
Yes not to mention he accused Brown of having an anxiety attack when Simon had to postpone their initial engagement. He had legit chest pains. Norris implied it was cause Brown was fearful.
Oh dude, that's right! Almost forgot about that. And didn't the fight get postponed twice, if I can remember right?
