Don King, on Mike Tyson


"Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter?
He went to prison, not to Princeton."



"To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music
and the dancers hit each other."

I am going back to see Terry Norris fights because Abel Sanchez was his trainer... same as GGG Golovkin now...

World Boxing Council Super Welterweight Title (1st defense by Mugabi)Norris was ranked #5 by the WBC at 154 pounds.
This was the first world title fight staged in Tampa since light heavyweight champion Bob Foster defeated Ray Anderson in 1971.
Norris
wobbled Mugabi with a left hook 45 seconds into the fight. Norris
followed up with a series of punches and Mugabi went down. He staggered
to his feet and was able to weather Norris' attack for the next minute
and a half. As the round neared its end, Norris put Mugabi down for the
count with a right to the chin.
The fight was named The Ring Knockout of the Year.
