An average boxer named Brown dropped Norris with a stiff left jab and Norris never recovered from that jab. He had good skills but a weak chin and poor powers of recovery. Canelo could take his power but he could not take Canelo's power.
    your under esitmating norris's skill set my good man

        Terry was one of the most complete fighters I've ever seen but it was his chin that cost him numerous times, skillwise he could beat all the current 154 pounders and a lot of the top 160 pounders but it's not only about skills, chin and mental toughness are huge factors in boxing too and he didn't have that, so I wouldn't say he would clean out but he'd definitley be in the mix.

          154 yes 160 no but if you put Julian Jackson or Gerald Mc Clem at 160 they would clean out that division of today

              He was badly hurt by unknown fighters when he squared up his stance and Welterweight Simon Brown torched him. His chin would not hold up to top 154 pounders let alone 160 pounders.

                He'd have a good chance to beat alot of them, but he can get kod any second against some of them too

                    yea 154 I think he would beat everyone except MAYBE Charlo.At 160 he would have probs with the top guys who can punch(GGG,Jacobs,Charlo)I think him and Canelo would be tough(style) could go either way.Could see Canelo winning 1st and Norris boxing more in 2nd and winning.Norris did not have great chin but guts and confidence can make up a little bit.He showed he could come back from a bad KO and fight smarter and win(Brown).

                      I t held up vs Brown in rematch and also vs Pettway.Terry could fight smarter when he needed to.
