Truth be told, Norris was a quart low, but the drop in comp quality compensated and the explosive wins seemingly continued. His activity can be attributed to a desire for a mega-fight, and at the time, Oscar De La Hoya openly entertained the match-up.
All that stood in the way was Keith Mullings, an unheralded journeyman that had all but beaten the daylights out of Raul Marquez three months earlier - losing a hotly disputed split decision.
This was the best and worst of the post-Brown version of Norris. The quick reflexes had dulled some, but the moves, technique and fighting spirit were present - over the first six rounds.
After that, overconfidence and pride decided his fate - and suddenly his mileage became apparent and he was essentially ruined. He would fight on after this pasting - losing badly twice, as a shell of his former self, before ultimately calling it a career.
I remember yelling out loud at the ref to step in and rescue Norris a good two or three seconds earlier than he did, fearing the worst for a fighter I had grown very fond of over the 90's.
