    i haven't seen this one before. I pick Norris. Like Ray Leonard, his style is all wrong for mayweather and although it's exceedingly close as well, he wins a decision.

    It wouldn't be close. Norris would put Floyd in a shell, and Floyd would content to go 12.

    Floyd is greater pound 4 pound.

    But Norris at 154 is too big and too strong. He'd put Floyd on the defensive all night long.

    Well yeah, Floyd's definitely better in a P4P sense.

    The 130-140 Floyd is a better fighter than Norris. But he damn sure wasn't better at 154.

    If Floyd manages to get dropped clean, he wins by DQ

    Norris is BIGGER, More ATHLETIC, he LIKED Hurting People and Floyd WOULDN'T Be Able to Keep Norris Off of him...

    If the INNER Toughness Floyd Exhibited Against Chop Chop Corley or Sugar Shane Surfaced, Norris STOPS Him Late...Otherwise, Norris by UD...

    Depends how willing Floyd is to take chances. If ge finds himself down in the cards and gambles, I could see him getting stopped.

    More likely outcome is he won't swing for the home run and instead go down looking.

    Norris KO Floyd? Highly unlikely. I don't recall Norris KOing Simon Brown and Floyd is at least as durable as Brown and far more elusive. Get with it people.

    LOL. It's hilarious how Sly gets appalled at the mere suggestion of Floyd ever being stopped by anyone.

    Norris COULD stop Floyd, although my money would be on Floyd lasting the distance. But it's definitely not out of the realm of possibility.

    He'd beat the shit outta Floyd, I know that.

    It's not through "fandom" that I get appalled, it's the lack of logic. Floyd has never been close to being stopped. He hasn't even officially been knocked down from a punch.

    Again, it Depends on HOW Floyd Fights...

    Norris Would HIT and HURT Floyd for Sure...Question Is, Does Floyd Bite Down and Stand his Ground, as he Did When Corley and Shane Hit and Hurt Him OR Does Floyd Get Overly Defensive and Content w/Going the Distance???...

    If Floyd DOES Respond as he Did vs. Corley and Shane, Norris Eventually STOPS Him...

    PBF was hurt pretty badly a couple of times, against guys smaller than Norris, and who weren't even close to being as destructive as he was. The lack of logic is to think that since someone never got koed, he can never get koed

    he was buzzed briefly a couple of times. Don't exaggerate. It wasn't like he was about to be stopped or anything.
