    Leonard fought Terry Norris when he was past his prime, but what if the Leonard in the Kalule fight fought him? Could Leonard win?

    I think Ray knocks out Norris in 6 rounds in that one.

    Yep, totally different outcome to their actual fight. I'd pick Leonard by KO inside 10 rounds.

    Leonard looked terrible in the Ayub fight. Norris has speed footwork and a punch. Norris by wide dec in 15. And he knocks Leonard down in the process.

    He would still be moving up so I don't see him imposing his size.

    Thankfully Norris wasn't a southpaw.

    The Kalule win is actually a damn good one as he posed all sorts of problems being a lefty and he was a very good fighter.

    Norris gets no respect head to head.

    Actually Norris was smaller than Kalule, and could've easily fought at welterweight. And he diffidently didn't have Kalule's physical strength. Leanard fought a flat footed and physical fight with Kalule, handled him with no problem.

    The Norris of the second Brown fight whoops almost everyone at 154 in history.

    Because he beat Simon Brown ? Same Simon Brown who went 6-9 the rest of his career? Same Simon Brown who knocked him down in the 1st rd with a jab in their 1st fight, and knocked him out cold in the fourth rd? And because he beat a blown up past prime natural welter by dec he beats almost any 154 pounder in history?
