Both are fast, explosive, and hard hitters. Boots is basically a 154 pounder anyway, who you got in a hypothetical fight?
This is your 3rd thread on the same hypothetical match up. Looks like you proposing a trilogy. Is this poll for the 3rd fight?
We not watched Boots at 154 ,Norris one of the best fighters all time in this weight class. On this time hard to say.
I think Norris is the better boxer I but he’s too chinny for a bigger guy that throws a lot of power shots.
Don't get me wrong i like Norris but did he ever beat a legit 154 pounder in their prime ? most of his wins were against past their prime fighters John Mugabi, SRL, Donald Curry. Or blown up Welterweights like Meldrick Taylor, Simon Brown, etc. His best win over a prime fighter is probably Jorge Castro which is a solid win since Castro went on to win a Middleweight title. But i feel like Norris did feast on alot of blown up Welterweights and shot fighters. In reality Ennis is a huge Welterweight and could easily make Jr Middleweight so that wouldn't be an issue. My issue is how hittable Ennis is and he's never met anyone remotely close to Norris's hand speed or power so you have to favour Norris. We haven't seen Ennis step up to the next level yet so he's still an unknown quantity he only has 1 win against a top 10 Welterweight. So it seems like a big step up for him to beat one of the best Jr Middleweights of all time.
I wouldn't give Boots any chance against a Leonard, Hearns, McCallum, Duran, or Benitez, but against Terry he certainly has a chance. I'd make Norris a favorite though. Terry was two light years better than Zayas.
Norris should be the favorite, but Ennis also has the power to knock him out. It's a stay on the couch and don't grab a beer type of fight.
