    A very interesting fight. Norris was lightning fast, started fast, had good size and big power. Tito started a bit slow, could be stung early .. I pick Tito, a tremendously under rated fighter these days but Norris was very dangerous.

    Tito's stock is not low in recent years, and I don't know why you'd think such a thing, especially to a "tremendous" degree.

    I agree. Tito is not underrated. He is slow on his feet and outsped by DLH. Honestly I gave him 4 rounds two of which DLH GAVE away. that's why he has no chance here. Terry would give him NO rounds

    Terry by the way pulled off the biggest upset since Douglas upset Tyson the year before, when he totally outboxed N outfoxed 5 time champ Sugar Ray Leonard.

    The BIGGEST upset regardless of sport?

    When Trump trounced Hillary of course. It was like 1964 all over again! "I shook up the world!" "I shook up the world"

    Trump made liberals all over the country grow faint

    Why? Read Rooster. It speaks for itself. Most remember Tito for losing to Hopkins and are clueless as to how he dominated the welterweighTs like few ever have.

    lol, redrooster is one of the most biased posters I've ever seen on this site in nearly a decade of being on here. Awful comparison to cite him as if he isn't an exception to said rule. Lets get real and stop insulting one anothers intelligence.

    Do you legitimately feel Tito is "tremendously" underrated? I'd like a straight answer to that question, please.

    You can't spend any substantial time on General if you do believe that, because on the far more active part of this site with far more members people universally hold him to destroy anyone around today in near universal short order. You can say he's almost underrated or some such, there may be proof to that. You people need to watch what words you choose to use, and not always use the most extreme, end of the spectrum words you can imagine to to make every conversation a black and white affair.

    I pick Trinidad by KO. But, it would be an awesome fight (much better than Tito-De La Hoya) right up until the end. Sadly this was a fight that actually could have happened and never got made. It is Norris' fault for having that 3 fight fiasco with Luis Santana. It wasted over a year of Norris' prime and took some of the luster off of the matchup.

    Thank you for the warning of what we can and cannot say .. much appreciated .. ;) that aside I never go on General because it is filled with lower level posters .. I repeat that from what I read here Tito is tremendously under rated .. I find him to be a top ten all time great welterweight who dominated his division , edged a prime De La Hoya and never lost at the weight .. I repeat too many view him as the guy that lost to Hopkins, Wright and much later Jones .. his performances against Maurice Blocker, Yori Boy Campus, Camacho, Whitaker, Carr, Pendleton and later and David Reid, Fernando Vargas and Joppy were terrific.

    the man knoweth not what he sayeth! He sounds like one of those liberals and my guess is he voted for Hillary

    this is a tortoise vs Hare match up if I ever saw one

    Terry - make America fast again - Norris, would box circles around poor tito who was lucky the judges in the DLH fight, didnt know how to add!

    and anyone thinking or even worse, SAYING Tito would ever catch up with Norris and knock him cold, says that only because it is their fondest wish!

    But if fond wishes were the same as cold reality, Hillary would be President and big mouth Trump would be a laughingstock "joke" as predicted



    "McCain? He's alright if you like guys that were captured. Me, I like guys who weren't captured"

    Tito would be lucky to get in one punch. Not that it would land
