    As said before on this thread, you own yourself... Delusional, lacking boxing knowledge, and obviously idiotic if you can`t see SRL was 34. But, I also agree that your posts and love of girfriend Terry,make for great laughs for all of us. Plus your rants have greatly pleased BROWN, BOUDANI ROSENBLATT and JACKSON in the all time great standings. Seeing as how they annihilated Norris. So on behalf of them I thank you ;)

    When one thinks of boxing's greatest comeback, it would be a mistake to count SRL-hagler becuz it really goes to Terry Norris

    going out in only two in his first title try Terry learned from his mistakes and went on to pull off the sport's greatest comeback; his miracle decimation of Mugabi

    and when the situation looked hopeless against heavily favored five title champion Ray Leonard, unbeaten in 11 yrs, Terry under the tutelage of Sayatovich & Sanchez, followed the lesson plan to the T, and fought the perfect fight, and becoming the sport's next Ali

    in his next fight, Terry again proved the experts wrong, ripping ex champ Curry to shreds in 8

    did u see it Brady? It looked like Donald was facing 8 men at once

    and in his ultimate moment of glory, dispatched fellow speedster & conquerer of JC Chavez, M. Taylor in just 4

    and notice that Terry achieved his win WITHOUT the controversy?

    that puts him over both Sugar & Chavez both p4p

    Shot ass Curry was actually fighting Terry on even terms for much of that fight. Before Terry's youth took over, then he started beating Curry up.

    The prime Curry of the mid 80's would have destroyed Norris.

    actually, the reverse is true. Donald started out slow, was outhit 5-1 for the first five rounds (couldnt keep up) before coming on rounds 6-8, even managed to hit Terry hard enough that last round where Terry almost felt it. Not bad

    most other fighters wouldve gone out which is a testiment to Terry's fine chin

    Still, a few well placed shots arent enough to earn the rounds

    Im just seeing this ignorant Red rooster posts..... To suggest that the version of Leonard that faced Norris was peak, not cocained out, ignore his inactivity.. is like saying trevor berbick is better than Ali.

    Red Rooster and I have debated on other sights and he is delusional.
