    Just ordered his career set based on a couple of his fight I've seen. Great style to watch and could really bang when he sat on his punches. I recognise plenty of his opponents but I hear evreyone most were past there best and at a weight too high. Is this true? What do you think his best wins are?

    Thanks

    Mugabi was a pretty big win. Although people tend to dismiss it today, Mugabi was still well-thought of at that time and was favored to win if I remember correctly. No one expected Norris to simply walk through him like he did.

    The first one is him yelling at Luis Santana, seated ringside after the Waters fight, I believe. Just two rivals jawing at each other, really. The other one looks like he's yelling at Santana post-fight.

    Even though Ray was not active and picking fights at this time, it was Leonard. You do not beat a Ray Leonard and not say it was his best win.

    He lost via DQ both times, for hitting while Santana was down.

    I remember his win over Paul Vaden was great as Terry and Paul had been running their mouths a lot before the fight...2nd Brown fight was also a good win for Terry....
