Terry Norris v Oscar Dela Hoya 154lbs who wins
this fight nearly happened but Norris was upset by Kieth Mullings unfortunately ,but how would this fight have played out
i think maybe Oscar by KO or Norris by decision
,depends how Norris fought he was either a gun slinger when it suited him or a very good counter puncher on the back foot
if the Norris that fought Simon Brown 2 turned up i could easily see Oscar being outboxed but if the Norris that fought Waters ,Brown 1 , Blocker ,Gatti etc turned up then he could very well get stopped
im swaying towards Oscar by stoppage but if Norris boxed id pick him over Oscar
And TTN is bigger than all those guys above!!
Yeah but those guys could take a good shot. Terry, as was previously mentioned, had a tendency to lapse mentally and would brawl with guys he had no business brawling with (see: Troy Waters).
Oscar stops him late after being down on points. I think he'd turn up the pressure and Terry's lack of discipline would get him in trouble...trouble in the form of an Oscar left hook.
I make Norris the favorite.
De La Hoya would be a very live underdog. De La Hoya had power in that left hook in every weight class he fought in. Norris in addition to being chinny, was too brawl-happy for his own good.
Oscar could gas aswell i supose , he has always had a tendency to gas out after 6/7 rounds and Norris could box on his toes for 12 rounds easy he was a very well conditioned fighter
Oscar by KO. Terry was a great defensive boxer when he tried. But he enjoyed brawling to much and got caught. Im sure at one point he would start slugging and get caught.
I think DLH by come from behind knockout, he'd get outboxed for the first 7 or 8 rounds, Norris gets a bit over eager and starts going after DLH and gets caught with a left hook that ends his night.
I think terry would take it. I think terry speed, power, and combination punching would be to much for oscar.
but oscar with his skills and left hook in particular would have a good punchers chance
not that terry had the worst chin ever but when you are that offensive you are open to get hit.
