    Yes, he should have relied more on his defense as opposed to offense because his slugging ability left his chin more often than not very vulnerable and exposed to huge punchers and counter punchers; Which in the long run probably shaved many years off his career.

      Agree he deff would have won even more then he did if he stuck to boxing.But he was exciting but I also love a good tech boxer.

        Same here; Terry Norris was one of my favorite fighters of all-time. He was very fun to watch with a crowd pleasing style to go with it.
