    Norris simply doesn't have the chin to deal with Rays power and one thing with Ray is he was a very good finisher and had a great chin to go along with his skills. If Simon Brown can find him I see Ray being able to find him as well. If Mullings can find him I'm pretty sure Ray is going to find him. I mean Jackson laid out Norris with what ONE PUNCH ???? And was Jackson as fast as Norris ?? Was Norris too fast for Jackson ??
    And then we get to the great Luis Santana who beat Norris not once but TWICE how did that even happen ? I mean Norris is the greatest ever how is he letting a boxer with 15 losses hang around past the first round ? I mean shouldn't someone like Norris be finishing an untalented boxer like Santana off within MINUTES ?

    Nobody actually cares about your ego. I basically named the wins over guys who were on pfp lists.

    Surely you give the same credit to Floyd for looking great after long layoffs.

    You just exposed yourself trust me. Canelo isn't even close to Duran in ANYWAY.

    Now you switched from Pacquiao to Canelo?

    Canelo is obviously better from 154 up in a h2h sense and resume. One is well into double digit wins in title fights with zero loses to guys who weren’t the best fighter in the sport and the other might not even have a winning record in title.

    Ledwaba was an incredible win for Pac. A bout taken on short notice against a world champion nobody wanted to fight and an unbeaten world champion at that.
    And Pac literally brutalized him.
    And you didn't even bother to put it on his top 5 wins..........but put other wins on where Pac was clearly past his best.

    Of course I didn’t. Ledwaba wasn’t close to pfp and the fight was at 122. You don’t understand boxing if you don’t understand why it’s harder to win as a small man at a higher weight.

    Duran moved up in weight and beat RAY LEONARD a better win then ANY win Canelo has or will ever have.

    What exactly does that win have to do with Duran’s resume at 154 and higher?

    Right. Ledwaba was the best fighter in that weight class and PAC not only took it on short notice but literally destroyed him.
    Keith Thurman though is such a more impressive fight.
    Sasakul had just knocked off the monster of the division(Yuri) and PAC goes abroad and rips his crown off.. ..... and you give Tim Bradley 3.

    Yep, Tim was a top ten pfp fighter and champ at 147. A guy whose resume has more than one guy on the win column who you can name.

    GGG vs Canelo 1 was one of the worst decisions I think I've ever seen and it was a simple case of we can make much more money with Canelo then we can with an aging champion (GGG) but we can't give Canelo the win - even casuals would scream bloody murder - so lets make it a "draw ".

    Right somehow he's in the top ten pound for pound at the time .......then literally retires after the loss to Pac. Make that make sense.

    Like I said casual. Another top ten p4p fighter loses the fight and retires at the "top" of his game lol.
