If a past his prime Curry gave Norris some problems what do you think A Curry at the top of his game does?
I'd give Curry a 50/50 chance, which is slightly higher than I would give Ray Leonard. Not because Curry is a better fighter than Leonard, but it is because I believe he had slightly heavier hands than Leonard. Curry did not possess Leonard's speed, but his speed is still on par with Norris'. I just don't like the way Curry leaves his chin exposed against a puncher as quick as Norris. I'll take Norris, at this time, in a much more competitive bout than what happened when they actually met. On a side note: I rank Mike McCallum higher(at 154) than anyone else mentioned in this thread. Curry's performance against McCallum would make me pick Ray Leonard to defeat McCallum at this weight.
I go for Curry Curry of 85 was the best pound for pound fighter Norris has a glass chin and Curry would smash him out cold I believe Curry at the top of his game was superb Of course Curry had weakness too. But I feel Curry is gonna land on Norris early
