Whos is higher P4P: Leonard or Norris?

Terry would win if Marvin came out in the same lame fashion he did for Leonard. But if Marvin comes out smoking (Lee, Hamsho, Hearns, Minter) Norris would fall like newly mown grass.

 

Hagler didnt throw anything hard at leonard. Most everyone who saw it at the time,

were all saying how fixed it looked.

Terry would have breezed by Hagler. Marvin was slower than molasses and would never touch Terry the same way he never touched his sparring partners

 

Pressure! He said pressure!



That was some pressure!

 

Hagler v norris!!!!!!????? :smoke :smoke :smoke :nut :nut :nut :rofl :rofl :rofl :bbb :rasta :admin :admin :scaredas: atsch atsch atsch atsch

By the way roosty,how come norris was spent at 30? norris had 56 fights totalling 310 rounds,and ray had 40 fights totalling 305 rounds. Leonard at 30 was beating hagler,norris was getting mashed by mullings,rosenblatt and boudiani? come on reddy,explain that?

 

Bernard Hopkins outlasted Roy Jones later in his career but Jones still came out on top head to head. :smoke

And that was with the title at stake.


What you going to say to me now? You are shooting blanks at me.

 

I bet you you come back at me in a few days with this same argument already knowing it has failed.

I'm just too smart for you, too good for you and will embarrass you every time.

 

You didnt answer,why is it soo amazing that leonard is shot at 35,yet norris is shot at merely 30? They both had similiar rounds boxed and number of fights.....Dont use unlinked analogies,hopkins and jones have nothing to do with this........

 

I dont think its amazing. Leonard was fighting a bunch of old soft guys, some of which were shot (Hagler, Hearns) and clubfighters (Lalonde, Hearns)

Even you have to admit that in hindsight it wasn't that great a feat getting a win over a shot fighter. What was great about Leonard is how well preserved he was.

In fact he had been preparing for his moment since he retired in 1982with his concocted story that his eye had been injured. He just got his Doctor's excuse so he could delay his date with the world's best fighter (Hagler) and come back at the right time. The right time was 5 years later.

Norris wasnt like Leonard though. No planning was necessary, he just took them as they came. He didnt have to do things the Sugar Ray way and would fight anyone anywhere. Terry also liked to mix it up which leonard didn't like because he was afraid of getting hit, like Ken Norton. That's why I liked Norris-he came to fight. That was the street fighter in Terry coming out.

Terry was brialliant in his fight with Jackson the way he whizzed by him in the first round. Jackson was no less brilliant and moved in quickly to end the fight. That's what Leonard should have done but pressure is not leonard's strong point. And Enquirer you must remember that between two boxers, the faster man usually wins by a wide margin. History is full of examples of this.

Leonard had it easy in comparison to guys like Hagler and Norris and even De la Hoya.I think Leonard with his limited schedule had very little wear on his body thats why he did so well with Duran the last time and why his legs worked so well. He couldnt do as well with Terry because he's never done well with fighters of this type.

 

What the weaver tripletts did with Hagler, Norris would do for all 12 rounds. Hagler was totally inept fighter by this time.

 

Selfkill, the Weaver triplets though they were not professional fighters possessed the kind of speed Terry had. Marvin never caught up with them and was easily battered by Norris/Jones like flurries at will---on many occasions. Marvin could do little but cover up at this stage.

 

And two of those that voted for norris thought the poll was about height of flat top......
