Who wins this fight? It would be very interesting from the opening bell.

60/40 in favor of Norris. He was the superior boxer, but Oscar had a much better chin and he could stop Terry early with a couple of hooks.

ODH to win sometime late. But it would be a great fight.

I think I agree with you. De La Hoya's durability & Norris' chin combine to carry the day for Oscar.

Norris was brilliant late in fights, his lapses came early when he was going all out for the kill. If he settled into Boxing mode, Oscar would get schooled.

Not in this match! ODL would put too much pressure on him, all the way through.

Norris had some serious speed but I think De La Hoya is just in a different class
