I like Norman - he sounds like a talented bright guy but one who’s smart enough to know what he doesn’t know and has the self-awareness to just focus on fighting and let things play out. That’s the exact opposite of Shakur Stevenson, a talented guy who isn’t very bright yet thinks he’s smarter than everyone else - and lacks any sense of self-awareness. Stevenson seems to think he’s clever going to great lengths to troll other people on social media and making references to things in their past - yet he’s too dumb to realize all people have to do is Google “Shakur Stevenson” and “beating women” and find enough material to surf for days.

We need more Brian Normans and fewer Shakur Stevensons in boxing.

This would be fireworks and a fight I’d love to see

I would watch this fight. His last fight was solid entertainment.

"We need more Brian Normans and fewer Shakur Stevensons in boxing." You called it, Roj!

I like Brian Norman jr's style in the ring, and I can appreciate his cerebral nature and his love of history. But that won't help him against Boots. But I know he would knock out old Plum eyes Teofimo Lopez. If Claggett could turn both of his eyes into plums, I know Norman could put him to sleep. He's way more dangerous than Claggett

Can't wait to see Norman's next fight. His style was hella entertaining vs Santillan.

Norman impressed me in the Santillan fight. I would enjoy watching him fight Teofimo. In fact , I think that Norman beats the two hit wonder.
