I just watched an interview with Norris and he admitted he'd get knocked out if Duran caught him . I think Norris wins on points if he moves and boxes very carefully.

I feel like Norris would outbox Duran usually, he of course could get stopped, and that's not out of the question. It's also not out of the question he could stop Roberto.

Terrible Terry Norris by decision if the great Roberto Duran comes flat.

But, the Duran that massacred Davey Moore comes in, then Terrible Terry is in trouble.

In those weight classes, 154lbs and above, Duran had to train very hard to win. Not like at lightweight or welterweight where he could take a day off or two in the office.

Norris got knocked by most decent hitters who caught him though?
He could box but his chin failed him when he brawled.
The 2 bouts with Simon Brown showed that

The Roberto Duran of the Davey Moore fight wins. But, 9 times out of 10, it would be Terrible Terry Norris the winner using his boxing skills.

At 154lbs and above in those days after No Mas, you didn't know what Duran was coming to the ring.
