    i saw fights. possibly less than you , but still.
    i saw the jackson norris fight.
    the mugabi norris fight.
    wasn't patient enough to see the taylor - norris fight , maybe i did once.
    how can you argue about his stats.

    can you explain what was so special about him ?
    speed , china chin , what more ? what's to like that much ?
    i do know what's to like about julian jackson who is overwhelmingly superior to norris both p4p and h2h.
    mccallum also.
    in one of the past threads i compared jackson to norris and the outcome was clearer than the sun.
    chin , power , balls whatever you want. so norris had speed.
    maybe that answers the thread about a slower fighter handling a faster one.
    hands are quicker than feet. a fast footed fighter won't escape a fast handed one from close to mid range.
    when out of range the answer is obvious.
    he did have victories i regard meaningful over castro and little , maybe some more.
