Norris is one of my all time favorites but its just how you look at it, if you're looking for longevity than maybe him or Wink but Norris didn't have the same caliber of wins as Hearns.

Sort of off topic but how do these fighters match up? I think Hearns and McCallum both beat Norris. McCallum beats Winky, not even sure how Hearns-Winky would go, would probably favor Hearns. Some interesting matchups.
Norris beat some very good fighters at 154.

Meldrick Taylor
John Mugabi
Donald Curry
Sugar Ray Leonard

It depends on the way you see it, Hearns did have the better wins against Benitez, Duran, better than any wins Norris had. But Hearns wasn't at Jr Middleweight long and Norris overall beat a lot of solid opposition and longevity wise its no contest, but like i said it depends on how you look at it.
