    Comments Thread For: Boxing Without Boxing: Simon Brown vs. Terry Norris I - 12/18/1993

    Following his controversial draw in 1993 versus Julio Cesar Chavez, there was little argument about the best overall fighter in boxing. The spot after Pernell Whitaker was fertile ground for debate as the year came near its end.

    This fight showed the importance of getting your tactics right. He fell right into Brown's counterpunching game in fight one. In the rematch, Norris put on one of the best boxing displays I ever remember seeing. Brown didn't touch him.

      Norris was a beast with a dodgy chin loved him, this fight showed why never give up on yourself, Brown had one fight left in him.

      These are the type of fights why i love boxing so much not the bull**** on display

        Terry Norris was fun to watch. Very flashy offensive fighter.

        But Simon Brown put it on him that night.

            Refreshing news article and a good boxing history lesson.

            Is sad that Simon Brown still is not inside the Hall Of Fame Ballot, his fights always was entertaining and his opposition was good. Love the adjustment Terry Norris did in the rematch and a good boxing schooling.

              Back then I thought Norris fell in love with scoring the knockout and left his great skills behind. Showed in that fight but corrected the problem in the rematch.

                  3 fights where i made

                  Tons of $$$ from ppl
                  Holmes vs Cooney
                  Norris vs Brown
                  Hopkins vs Trinidad.
                  Such easy pickings. .
                  Just amazing how many ppl thought Brown was going to be whitewashed by the chinny Norris.
                  Terry should have had the nick name "Kid Candle "One blow, & he was out.
