by Geoffrey Ciani(Exclusive Interview by Jenna J & Geoffrey Ciani) – Last week’s 146th edition of On the Ropes Boxing Radio (brought to you byCWH Promotions) featured exclusive interviews with former three-time world champion “Terrible” Terry Norris (47-9, 31 KOs). Norris spoke about his Hall of Fame career and also shared some opinions and insight on the currentboxing landscape. Here is a complete transcript from that interview:
JENNA J: Well since we’ve been speaking about Hall of Famers, I’m proud to announce a guest that a lot of our fans have been dying to have us get on the show. He’s our ninth Hall of Fame guest making his debut to On the Ropes Boxing Radio. We’re joined by former three-time world champion, “Terrible” Terry Norris
. How’s everything going today Terry?
TERRY NORRIS: Everything is going good.
JENNA: Well that’s great to hear. Boxing fans have often suggested you as a guest for our show. You’re a guy that a lot of fans wanted to hear from. So I’d like to open things up and ask what you’ve been doing since your retirement, Terry?
NORRIS: Since my retirement I’ve done a number of things. One of the first things here is I’ve been trying to start a boxing foundation. It’s called “The Final Fight”. Also I’m writing a book with Bob Halloran. He wrote the book aboutThe Fighter.
JENNA: Terry, what’s been the biggest adjustment for you since you did retire in your life after boxing?
NORRIS: Well I guess it’s just pretty much every day life. You know you go out in the real world and just doing everyday things is kind of difficult at first. But then I kind of caught on to it, and I figured out how to do everything and then everything was good.
JENNA: Well for all the fans out there and for some of the fans who maybe aren’t as familiar with you, maybe you can tell them a little bit about how you got into the sport of boxing?
NORRIS: I started boxing when I was nine years old. My Mom put me in boxing just to keep me off the streets, and she did her best.
JENNA: Okay now you were also a very good baseball player. What made you decide to choose boxing over baseball?
NORRIS: Boxing was paying the bills, so boxing kind of took over for baseball because baseball wasn’t making me any money, so I had to go to what was making me a lot of money.
JENNA: Alright now Terry you actually had an extraordinary amateur career. You racked up 291 wins and had only 4 defeats. Can you tell us how that success helped you develop as a fighter?
NORRIS: Well it started when I was a kid boxing and beating a lot of guys. I didn’t think too much of it, but then I just kind of started liking boxing and it just kind of took off from there.
JENNA: Let’s talk a little bit about your expectations going into your professional career. After having the success in the amateurs, how far did you think you were going to go?
NORRIS: Well I really didn’t know. Me and my brother, my brother was the cruiserweight champion of the world, Orlin Norris—we both wanted to become world champions and we both got there, but it was a long road.
JENN: Okay, well great Terry. We’re also on the line with my Co-Host Geoff Ciani.
GEOFFREY CIANI: Hi Terry. It’s a great pleasure to have you on the show.
NORRIS: How are you doing?
CIANI: I’m doing very well, thank you. Terry, when you look back on your career if there was one thing that you could change or do differently what would you have done differently?
NORRIS: What would I do different? It’s kind of hard to say what I would do, but I truly don’t think boxing would have been my first pick. I think I would have picked baseball.
CIANI: So you think you would have chosen baseball over boxing?
NORRIS: Yeah, just because of the things I’m going through now from boxing.
CIANI: Understood. Now on the other side, when you look back at the extraordinary boxing career that you did have, is there one particular moment or one particular fight that you are most proud of?
NORRIS: I guess the most proud was when I won that first world title, the first WBC world title. That was probably the happiest moment of my life. You know I had finally accomplished something that my Dad had wanted from years back. So I became a world champion for my Dad.
CIANI: Now when you won your first world title, can you tell us a little bit more about that fight and what it was like going into it?
NORRIS: Well that was against John “The Beast” Mugabi, and I was nervous. Everybody was telling me how hard John “The Beast” hit, so I was nervous. When I went in that fight I was confident that I was going to do everything I could to keep from being beat. It just so happened I hit John with a good right and hand a good left hook and that kind of ended the fight.
CIANI: Terry, changing things up here a little bit, one of the questions I like to ask the guests we have on our show is the story behind how they first started using their boxing nickname. In your case, I’m wondering if you could tell all of our fans out there how you first started using the nickname “Terrible” Terry Norris?
NORRIS: Well that came from my Mom too, back when I was just a terrible little kid just running around, and fighting and everything, and being a little bully. In my hometown I got the name “Terrible” Terry, and it just kind of stuck with me.
JENNA: Alright Terry well let’s switch things back to your boxing career, and one particular fight that sticks out above the rest because it was the biggest name you ever fought—Sugar Ray Leonard. You got a chance to meet with him in the ring in 1991. What did you think of that fight?
NORRIS: The fight with Ray was scary at first, because I’m fighting my idol. It was somebody that I kind of worshiped at one time, and it was also a guy that showed me a lot and taught me a lot. So it was a really nervous scary feeling stepping in that ring.
JENNA: How did you feel when you knocked him down in the second round?
NORRIS: That first knockdown when I hit Ray with that left hook and dropped him, I just couldn’t believe it. I was just so happy. From that point right there Ray didn’t win another round. After the second round he didn’t win one round.
JENNA: Now that fight with Sugar Ray Leonard was kind of a springboard for your career. A lot more people got to know you and you had more notoriety from it, and you also had a lot of success after it. You had a long title reign. Can you tell us what that run was like for you?
NORRIS: You know that was quite a long run I had as champion. It was a great feeling. You know I had fun doing it. Right now I still can’t believe it. I accomplished a lot of things.
JENNA: Yeah. You certainly did accomplish a lot of things, and one thing throughout your career is you had a few unusual defeats. You had three disqualification losses. Can you tell the fans about how those losses happened to you?
NORRIS: With those three disqualifications, I think that was just me being a little over anxious and I just wasn’t paying attention to what was going on. It wasn’t like I lost my head or lost my mind. It was just total mistakes.
JENNA: Alright Terry, well one thing that sets you apart from a lot of the other former champions out there was your success in rematches. When you got a second opportunity at an opponent you beat them. Can you tell us why you think you were able to do that?
NORRIS: The Simon Brown defeat, that fight with the first fight we had kind of shocked me. He came out and just tried to run over me. He threw a bunch of power punches and just knocked me down and hit me in the back of my head. So he used a lot of cheesy tactics and kind of took me out of my game. So I lost that first fight, but then the second fight was a whole different story. I was in the best shape of my life and I could dance for twelve rounds and I knew it. Then that fight I outboxed Simon Brown for twelve rounds just moving, and stepping, and jabs, 1-2’s. It was a great fight.
JENNA: Now what about the Luis Santana fight? The fact that you got disqualified the first two times, what were you feeling going in the third time?
NORRIS: Well the third time I was just like, “Terry, don’t make any mistakes!” I knew I was going to beat him. Luis Santana wasn’t that good of a fighter. I knew I would beat him, but I just didn’t want to get careless and do something stupid. That’s a fight though where I learned a big lesson and I was just able to move on.
CIANI: Terry, going back to when you first started becoming interested in boxing, who were some of the boxers that you looked up to and most admired at that time?
NORRIS: The most admired was Sugar Ray Leonard and Muhammad Ali. Those were my idols, and of course I watched Joe Frazier, and Marvin Hagler. I watched everybody.
CIANI: When you look at the stars in boxing today, the two big names we have right now are Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Junior, and I was wondering if you could tell the fans out there what you think of those guys?
NORRIS: You know I really don’t think too much of those guys. If they were back in my era they wouldn’t be champions. Boxing has gotten soft. If you put Floyd Mayweather in my era, I know a number of guys that were in my weight division that would beat him, including me! I don’t think that much of boxing today.
CIANI: Now you said you think you could beat Floyd. I’m curious Terry, a lot of fans tune in to Floyd hoping to watch him lose. In your view, what would be the key to beating him?
NORRIS: The key to beating Floyd is somebody that’s going to go in there and mix it up with Floyd. Not box him, but go at him, bang Floyd, push Floyd around, and hit him with uppercuts and hit him with things that he’s just not expecting to be hit with. You need somebody strong, somebody bold, and somebody that’s real aggressive and just throws a lot of punches, and goes in there in the best shape of their life and ready to go.
CIANI: Now given the description you just gave there, do you think if they ever fought that Manny Pacquiao could beat him?
NORRIS: No. Manny Pacquiao can’t beat him. There is no way Pacquiao can beat Mayweather! He comes forward, but he’s not that strong. He’s not like a real power puncher. He’s not as fast as Floyd, so Floyd will be able to outmaneuver him, throw different combinations, use his speed, and outmaneuver him. I believe that right there would be a very easy fight for Floyd.
JENNA: Okay now Terry, you mentioned before that Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Junior wouldn’t do so good in your era. I’m wondering, there were so many great fighters when you fought, was there any particular one that you wished you could have gotten in the ring with that you didn’t?
NORRIS: Not really. When I was fighting, I wanted to fight everybody but now that I’m not fighting I really don’t care. Back then I would have loved to have fought De La Hoya. I would have loved to have been able to fight Floyd. I would have loved to have been able to prove that Floyd is not the best fighter in the world, and I know I could have beaten him.
JENNA: Now you mentioned De La Hoya, you actually almost had an opportunity to fight him. I think that you were close to having a deal in place to fight him after the Keith Mullings fight, but you got upset. Do you at all regret not getting that fight?
NORRIS: Well you know I did for awhile, but it wasn’t in to my life. Ideally I did want that fight, but I guess God didn’t want it that way.
JENNA: Alright well Terry, let’s talk about your decision to retire from boxing. You had three straight losses to end your career. What made you finally decide this was the end?
NORRIS: Well losing those three fights, I should have quit long before that. I was having problems in those fights and even before those fights. So that’s when maybe I believe had my Parkinson’s syndrome.
JENNA: Well Terry I just have a couple of more questions before we let you off the line. You mentioned some of the difficulties you’re having today. What’s the best advice that you could give to a young and upcoming fighter?
NORRIS: My best advice would be don’t start too early boxing, and don’t end too late.
JENNA: Okay and finally Terry, you have a lot of boxing fans out there, people who follow you on Facebook, people that have followed you ever since your career started until now. Is there anything you want to say to them?
NORRIS: I would like to just say to everyone that I’m okay. I have Parkinson’s syndrome, which I’ve had for awhile. I take very good care of myself, and my wife is the best ever! Also I’m coming out with a reality show. It’s called “Lady and the Champ”, and you can see all about the champ and what’s going on in my life.
JENNA: Well I definitely look forward to that “Lady and the Champ” reality show. You heard it out there. Terry, it was a pleasure having you on the show. I do wish you all the best, and it’s just great to hear that you’re out there and letting the fans know what’s up with you and everything that’s going on with your life.
NORRIS: Thank you.
CIANI: Thank you very much, Terry. Best of luck!
NORRIS: Alright. Thanks a lot.

FYI, many people in the philippines and around the world just like the boxing skillts and attitude of pacman, nothing more, nothing less.. outside boxing like politics? hell no! your crazy, just a team of pacman said that he want to be president, dont ridiculous of saying the whole country want pacman to be their prez.. heard about the news regarding the first attempt of pacman to the politics? he loss man.. b4 u say something about politics here, just look at your country, idiot.. everywhere in the world politics is dirty.. dirty as ur brain..
John Doe, morons and idiots like you should better suck yourself till kingdom come.
john doe and terry norris are one of those infectious flies feasting on every mayweather droppings haha
john doe, i dont think you understand the situation. we dont have $14Trillion debt. we dont even waste our money on wars we couldnt even win and we dont spend money on a $40k on a toiletbowl to be delivered to your military in iraq?
i think you got more trouble with corruption than we do.
john doe is shet! terry man you just described the pacman! your mouth revealed whats in your hearth and mind! you idolize the pacman! hahaha! come on… the truth will set you free!
U Pathetic! so you keep your self updated on the happenings in the philippines, YOU need to be aware on what is happening in your country not on others country. maybe u r politician & not a boxing fan so ur comment goes that way….idiot!
JOHN DOE! WHERE ARE YOU? ARE YOU THERE? TOO MANY RPLY…..ARE YOU AFRAID NOW….HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA…..MAYBE YOU REALIZED THAT WHAT YOU SAID IS FOR AN IDIOT…SORRY…YUO CANNOT DELETE YOUR COMMENT…HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
junolivo, you’re right, why not convince the Fraud to fight the Pacman, and let’s see who will kiss the canvass… hahaha
I disagree with Norris. I didn’t read through the article. Floyd is already beat. It’s all in the mind. Floyd is uncertain of a win over Pacquiao. That alone spells doom for him. Floyd is aware of Pacquiao’s power and speed and is concerned about it. He respects that power so much that he thinks is from PED-use. How can you win with that mindset, respect for your opponent, entering into the ring?
Remember folks this fight won’t happen. Norris I bet you this fight won’t happen.
Was this fool high when he did the interview? He said “The key to beating Floyd is somebody that’s going to go in there and mix it up with Floyd. Not box him, but go at him, bang Floyd, push Floyd around, and hit him with uppercuts and hit him with things that he’s just not expecting to be hit with. You need somebody strong, somebody bold, and somebody that’s real aggressive and just throws a lot of punches, and goes in there in the best shape of their life and ready to go”. Yo Dude, you just described the PACMAN. Even on your retirement, you mentioned you would have loved to fight Dela Hoya and Floyd but not MANNY…even being retired you’re scared to mention MANNY’s name. HAHAHA you’re funny, man. All I can say is that you are lucky you’re not in the PACMAN’s era coz MANNY would had sent you to the hospital just like the rest of them…that is, if you’re even worth wasting MAANY’s time for. Dude, stop sniffing those white stuff HAHAHA!!!
who is this terry norris he really think he is?? he is nothing but an ambitious dreamer who doesn’t know about boxing and talking non sense. everybody doesn’t know you who really you are. the boxing fans around the world doesn’t even know u. now i ask u norris do u think u can beat pacman? no way! you are nothing! u can’t even beat floyd frankly speaking, so how much more to pacman? you are very much under dog between this two fighter. you are not in their level as a caliber boxer. u had so much false pride of yourself by saying that you would have loved to have been able to fight Floyd. I would have loved to have been able to prove that Floyd is not the best fighter in the world, and I know I could have beaten him.” and u also ask given the description about floyd if Manny Pacquiao could beat him, and u answer : No. Manny Pacquiao can’t beat him. There is no way Pacquiao can beat Mayweather! He comes forward, but he’s not that strong. He’s not like a real power puncher. He’s not as fast as Floyd, so Floyd will be able to outmaneuver him, throw different combinations, use his speed, and outmaneuver him. I believe that right there would be a very easy fight for Floyd. you know what, you are not in the position to say something which u dont know. pacman is better than floyd and he is really afraid to fight pacman by always avoiding him. the SUCKER PUNCHER, GREAT ELBOW SKILL DEFENSIVE FRAUD FIGHTER OF ALL TIME like floyd will never had a chance to defeat over pacman. so i would like to advise you to stop commenting about boxing coz everybody doesn’t know you, espeacially what you talking about is nonsense.
i dont know him either! look at his picture above he has similarity with floyd…maybe same blood running with floyd….DUCKERS! norris is not worthy of this kind of interview!
i believe you norris. theres no way you can beat the man who doesnt want to fight.
Please tell fraud that he should have no worries and just fight already. MANNY LOST 3 TIMES ALREADY and theres a blue print. HURRY HURRY AND SIGN THE CONTRACT FOR 50MILLION DOLLARS.
STOP RUNNING, TAKE THE MANNY TEST. NOW !!!!
Terry Norris, who is he.
cousin of Chuck Norris
younger brother of terry aunor haha!!!
Mal norris?
Nobody knows him i think he’s the guy who fought the taxi driver.
norris is one of those flies feasting on every floyd mayweather droppings.
If Mayweather can’t be beaten by Manny Pacquaio, then why not fight Manny inside the ring soonest possible. It could be May of 2012 after Manny’s fight with Marquez. We could only proved who is the best fighter of the two if they fight and not on worlds but in deed. Manny is willing to fight anybody in front of him and no distraction or trash talking, just fight and see who emerged the best.
how can u beat floyd or manny when you couldnt even beat a 14-4 record u f*cking id*ot..
I DONT BELIEVE. TO SEE IS TO BELIEVE
Hope he Floyd and his team won’t challenge Pacquioa earlier than March 13 .Remember when Pacquiao fought 12 rd with Cotto?That was Nov.13 2009.They tried to bluff Pacquiao for a March 2010.Pacquiao calls on their bluff aND fLOYD SCREW IT AWAY.Pacquiao left fighting Clottey in Texas because HBO and GBP had already scheduled date that time in las Vegas.Top rank headed by Arum,ended out Pacquiao /Clottey in Taxas foot ball stadium.
Obviously Norris doesn’t follow boxing anymore. He doesn’t know Pacquiao and his skills. He talked about how to beat Floyd but he is basically saying all that Pacquiao is capable of doing. Props to him though for telling the skills Floyd is not too confident exploiting to beat Pac.
who is this guy????
Father of Tim Bradley…hehehe..Wife of Chuck Norris
Does he know wat his saying?????
floyd is afraid of pacman…..
then why he keeps on ducking Pacquiao ???
47-9-0 with 30 ko.. he’s fighting tomato cans almost half of his career.. then he say he can beat pacman and gayweather? WTF.. he even fought a guy with a record of 1 win 9 lost and 1 draw.. are you freeeekin serious..? I don’t even know this guy.. this guy is literally terrible..!
Terry Norris had 9 losses in his career, three of them by disqualification (which is an indication that he is not above fighting dirty). The only notable names he beat were Donald Curry, Meldrick Taylor, John Mugabi, and Sugar Ray Leonard. How many of them were hall of famers? [Only Leonard?] His stock rose only because he beat Leonard, at the tail end of the latter’s career. He got beat by relative unknowns. Also, Julian Jackson and Simon Brown (do you honestly remember who this guy is) knocked him out. Pacman and Floyd fought more hall of famers or potential hall of famers than Norris did. In terms of quality of opposition, therefore, Norris list of opposition is far inferior against either Pacman’s or Floyd’s. During his time or even this time, nobody thought Norris is an all-time-great, because it is universally recognized that HE IS NOT. AT LEAST, with respect to Floyd and Pacman, there is a HEALTHY DEBATE today whether either or both should be considered all-time-greats, which gives an indication of how they are viewed by boxing afficionados and historians alike. I’m tired of this non-sense that a boxer feels he is better because “he fought in the old days”. Sure, its easy for Norris to say that he beats Floyd or Pacman for that matter because that is just speculation and guesswork on his part. What we do know for a fact is that Norris got beat by 9 opponents who were nowhere near the level of skill or greatness of either Floyd or Pacman.
Easier said man, tell ur gay friend to fight manny!!!
Terry Norris? His record was 47W-7L-0D when he was TKO’ed in the 9th by Keith Mullings (14W-4L-1D) record. What can you expect? or maybe you just want to take a piece of Pacman for Retirement pay.
These black guys think they can beat anybody until they whooped in the arse. Back in the days everyone were more of raw power. He said it himself he got lucky. Boxing in the days was more fun to watch because it looked like street fighting but don’t bring that shiit today. I bet a contender today would have beaten his sorry arse.
Funny comment about Manny Pacquiao, he got it wrong, the right phrase should be ‘there’s no way Floyd could win over Pacman’. Lol
According to Terry, he can beat Mayweather and pacqiuao in his era. WHATTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!?????????? TERRY’S last three fight were all lost to his UNKNOWN foes….. What the hell is this terry….
IT’S ALL TALK:-) HUH SHUT UP.
Terry who? No wonder you have poor records…. you cannot even correctly analyzed great boxer from a chicken.
WAHAHAH FUNNY! IF THAT’S SO WHY YOUR FIGHTER MAKING HARD TO FIGHT PACMAN..HIS MAKING THIS FIGHT HARD TO HAPPEN…
My son will never fight Pacquiao, I have my won reason, he’s a cheater… but my son will surely knock him out. So why fighting if my son can knock him out. There is no use as Pacquaio doesn’t have a punching power. My sons record is more than 20 KO, but pacquiao only got 38 KO, so he doesn’t have punching power. LOL
what can we expect from this a s s hole? another blackie species from gayweather domain
yes pacman will never beat floyd…. coz gayweahther will never fight manny thats it terry convince your gay idol
Pls tell Floyd to fight Manny..tell him that Manny is not that fast and Manny is not a hard puncher…plllease convince Floyd…!!
only the pactard flips are hating on this man because he spoke the truth. Pac is a midget on roids and all his mega fights are catchweight & marquez destroyed him on their first couple fights. stupid pactards keyboard morons dont know anything about boxing they only ride pac’s dick because all pactards are trolls when it comes to boxing topic.
you chicken shit you dont know boxing lol… and you are fucking crazy to say that pacman is taking steroids… man manny beats marquez twice lol and knock him down 4 times … what are you blind or just fucking moron…

Hide , just like the Brotherhood …soooo ashamed.
Beat the wife on points a while ago he…he
as u have said your not that mch into todays era of boxing, its pretty obvious that u dont know whats happening in boxing today and you dont know pacquiao yet… then better not to comment if you dont know anything man.. shut up and just keep on dreaming that your era is the best in boxing…. go to sleep now and kip on dreaming …
till now your still insignificant to boxing as you were when you were still fighting. chuck norris sounds more familiar to me than your name. was it cherry norris? whats the name again?
tulog sa kangkungan….he didnt read anything or watch boxing isnt it??? hahaha

YES THEY’RE RIGHT!…SHE IS MAL-NORRIS!…THE WIFE OF CHUCK NORRIS!…AND SHE SOUNDS LIKE SHE DOESN’T FOLLOW BOXING ANYMORE!…STUPID FOOL!
I disagree. I didn’t read through the article. Floyd is already beat. It’s all in the mind. Floyd is uncertain of a win over Pacquiao. That alone spells doom for him. Floyd is aware of Pacquiao’s power and speed and is concerned about it. He respects that power so much that he thinks is from PED-use. How can you win with that mindset entering into the ring? Remember folks this fight won’t happen.
Bang your ass, Norris. You are also a Floydiot.. bwahaha
QUE SERA SERA!
TERRY NORRIS..HM.N.NEVER HEARD IN BOXING TALKING LIKE A LOUD MOUTH…TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH IF YOU ARE FIGHTING IN THIS ERA THERE’S NO WAY YOU WILL WIN AGAINST PACQUIAO..MAYBE YOU PISSED IN YOUR PANTS WHEN YOU FIGHT HIM…LOL..
manny will fuck you both….
THIS CHERRY NORRIS GUY DOESNT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE EFFECT OF FEAR INTO LOSING., IT IS SO NORMAL THAN WHEN YOU’RE AFRAID, YOU WILL LOSE.., THAT’S IT MR. CHERRY NORRIS…
Yeh!, yeh! …. GayWheather cn’t beat me too. Why? We’ll never fight. Answer this: How can Pacman beat Gaywheather if the coward don’t want to fight the Pacman?
Terry Norris need a right hook uppercut to remember those opponent who put him sleep in the canvas.
And he said there is no way that Tito Trinidad can beat him back when they are close for a fight. If that fight was materialized, Terry Norris is a dead man now!
Birds of the same feather flock together. Don’t smoke too much weed Terry. The more you talk, the more your exposing your ignorance.
Definitely, Pacquiao will never beat Mayweather ! No way !
If Mayweather continue to duck Pacquiao , creating all sorts of alibis , we will never know , dont we ? Ask Marvin Hagler.
Caught on camera lying, this Mlooyd has lost his place in history.
Yeah, The Brotherhood is sooo ashame too…he…he
By the way ……perfect , no -loss record is two a dime today. Look, see the liar weaves stories. Beat the wife on points a while ago !
I believed Terry Norris that there’s no way Pac can beat Mayweather. How can Pacman beat a guy who won’t fight him ha ha ha….There’s no way as well for Gayweather to beat Pacman since he is so scared to death.
Analyze this, Pacquiao will win if the fight will go 12 full rounds. Pacquiao hardly lose a round during his recent fights. Why? because he threw volume of punches. Floyd will have his hands full covering from Pac’s onslaught and his feet would also be very busy trying to get out of the situation but no matter what he does Pac will finally caught up with him. If Floyd cannot win with a decision, can he win by TKO or KO? The answer is no. Pac have received the hardest blows from bigger and stronger fighters and it did not knock him. Guys like Cotto, Margarito, Clottey. So Floyd’s hardest punches will not be enough, Floyd has to use a baseball bat to knock out Manny. On the other hand Manny knocked out bigger guys both with his left or right fist. Floyd and his camp know this, this is the reason why they use all the excuses they could think of in order for this fight not to happen. Floyd will be exposed and his “legacy” will disintegrate once Pac beats him. It will be a humiliation to the max. And you better advise Floyd not to commit suicide
man, terry norris dont know boxing! lol
he said pacquiao’s got no power? where is this guy from? i dont think he actually knows or seen pacquiao fights, i mean literally! floyd was good in lower weights like lightweights against coralles and some dudes down there, but up in welter? he barely ko’s anyone in welter. nah, this guy is a fake, just like his brother floyd jr.
Yes I agree he cannot beat Floyd Gayweather because he doesn’t want to fight, bwahahahahaha.
Please refrain from any racial comment since all are of different background. It’s better that way.
terry norris is absolutely correct when he says mayweather jr. would be Lt.Col. Pacquiao easily. in fact, pacquiao’s lack of defense would be tailor-made for floyd jr.. it would be a boxing clinic given to pacquiao and would show just how overrated a fighter Lt.Col. Pacquiao is.
FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR. WOULD SEND LT.COL. PACQUIAO BACK TO 3RD GRADE!
Who is Terry Norris ? he could be high on crack during the interview.
@Manuel Pacheco : you are another talangka in the making …
Mr. Pacheco, just read again what your friend Norris describes how your Chicken Floyd can be beaten:
NORRIS: The key to beating Floyd is somebody that’s going to go in there and mix it up with Floyd. Not box him, but go at him, bang Floyd, push Floyd around, and hit him with uppercuts and hit him with things that he’s just not expecting to be hit with. You need somebody strong, somebody bold, and somebody that’s real aggressive and just throws a lot of punches, and goes in there in the best shape of their life and ready to go.
CIANI: Now given the description you just gave there, do you think if they ever fought that Manny Pacquiao could beat him?
Gee…man…Norris just described Manny Pacquiao right there.
how can pacman beat floyd because floyd dnt want to fight pacman..hahaha cause floyd is a gay we all know dat bwaaa hahaha..and now floyd have a new name floyd (the cheater)mayweather…
I think what Morris was sayin’ is………
NORRIS: No. Floyd Mayweather can’t beat him. There is no way Mayweather can beat Pacquiao! He doesn’t come forward, and he’s not that strong. He’s not like a real power puncher. He’s not as fast as Manny, so Manny will be able to outmaneuver him, throw different combinations, use his speed, and outmaneuver him. I believe that right there would be a very easy fight for Manny.
Norris who? Did he ever fought other than Leonard, great fighters the like of Hagler, Hearns, Duran, Aaron Pryor, Julio Cesar Chavez, or Felix Trinidad during his time? Pardon this guy, he probably hasn’t seen Pacquiao fought.
fuck you terry norris. die you blood sucker.
thanks to mr.. norris for giving floyd his much needed shot in the groin. maybe that’ll help him grow some balls to fight pacquiao..
… waste of time!
i remember a fight of norris with jackson. i realized then that he deserved his alias as ”terrible” because in the second round he was terribly beaten and ko’ed by jackson…
Tell that to Floyd, and maybe, just maybe he’ll take-out his tail between his legs and have the courage to fight the Pacman. Only then the world will know who is better of the two.
if there’s no way pacquiao will win on that fight so why floyd bitchin around like dad,on some PED and steroids,every one knows its basesless.grow up terry,mann…
Hes just another Slick Black American fighter,,, same as Mosley,,Et al
All you can do is talk,,,this world is full of talkers and not of doers unfortunately,,,suckss nothing gets done actually,,, nut talking verything can be done.
Pac Not strong and NOT fast? Where the hell you coming from with this nonsense man! Your either blind in one eye or just plain stupid! You should know by now that Floyd is a one punch wonder, his KO percentage is 25 percent vs PAC 30 plus. Those blinding hand speed and footwork will dazzle FLOYD and having him spinning like Giligan in his little island man.
Terry Norris is just trying to build the already balooned ego of the biggest fraud and coward in boxing today. Apparently, the way he described Pacquiao, he does not have a single clue of how Pacquiao fights inside the ring. He would be more credible if those statements were made by Joe Louis, Henry Armstrong, Rocky Marciano, Salvador Sanchez, Alexis Arguello and all the super elite fighters. He was just a B fighter lucky enough to face Sugar Ray Leonard. I bet Terry Norris cannot even beat Bobby Pacquiao for crying out loud.
