    Norris by TKO or UD. Norris is very underrated on ESB.

    Did a Puerto Rican **** in your chicken noodle soup? I never seen you write anything positive about any Puerto Rican boxer. Its getting trollish now.


    Tito, TKO.

    Shut the hell up, I have nothing against Puerto Ricans I used to date one. Calderon is one of my favorites and I have him in my top 10 P4P. I also like Cotto but realize his limitations.

    there was a reason norris pulled of their proposed bout. he knew he would get ktfo'd by trinidad. i think he ended getting stopped in his very next bout against mullen.

    Norris was past his prime. A prime Norris would have never ducked Tito.

    Norris is very underrated on ESB (someone else said that and they are right!)...However this fight scares me Norris had all of the tools to be dominant...except focus and concentration...For example when he fought a good puncher Simon Brown he lost...in a rematch he used his smarts and superior skill to beat him..That is the problem I believe he was a superior boxer to Tito, and possessed superior strength...The problem is I see Tito winning this and Norris needing a rematch to prove it! Tito wins the first in the 6th and a clear 9-3 decision for Norris in the 2nd fight! And Tito left wondering if he (Norris) is related to Winky?

    50/50 imo. norris has underrated athletisism, had good hand speed, nice combos and was a good boxer. he could outbox tito or stop him late. i'd probably take him easy if it was'nt for that chin he had. simon brown knocked him down with a jab of all things, before taking him out. jackson also put him to sleep with a single punch, though i can let this go as jackson's legendary power could put anyone to sleep. tito was one dimensional and could be outboxed, as shown manytimes against oscar, hopkins and early against reid. but he just wrecked people with that left hook. if one of those lands on norris chin, that might be all she wrote. 50/50 for me.

    If they fought twice Norris might win once. I woulod have to favor Tito though. Both are very good boxers. I think Trinidad had better chin and hit a little harder. I wish they would've fought they certainly could've. Both Ko'd blocker quickly.
