Terry wins this

Norris UD.

This is a fight that "Terrible" Terry Norris would have really loved to be in. He feasted in smaller boxers and washed up legends. It won't be different here. The great Pernell Whitaker was too small for him. That's why when Sweet Pea won the super welterweight title, he went back down to welterweight. Whitaker knew that 154lbs wasn't his weight.

Norris by knockout or wide unanimous decision.

I think Whitaker was good enough defensively not to get stopped by Norris, but he'd be outmuscled and just couldn't keep up with Norris' offense.

Whitaker wouldn't have the pop to hurt Norris, and Norris would be quick enough to get to Whitaker routinely and with much better offense. Norris was chinny, but he was a gifted offensive fighter. Quick and powerful. He'd be bad news for Whitaker for sure.

Norris was the beast at 154lbs as he would outjab and outpunch the southpaw legend in Sweet Pea to take a decision.
