hey just wonderin if anbody has seen this guy fight or if anybody has heard anything good about him,his boxrec says hes 8-0 6 by way of.anyway just wonderin if hes a glimmer of his old man....
Aaron Jr is my homey, I got mad love for him and his Dad and Mom Frankie. Aaron Pryor Jr is not like his father stylistically. Aaron Jr. is 6'4, how he manages that with his father being my height is a mystery. He was a basketball player in high school and was thinking of going to play college ball, but then went with boxing and won the Ohio Golden Gloves.
He's long, and he uses his size and reach very well. He's almost like a Paul Williams, but he doesn't throw quite as many punches. His parents want him to take his career slowly because they don't want him to get ahead of himself yet. His brother Stephen wanted to be a star too soon and as a result got caught up in the hype and lost focus. Aaron Sr was even opposed to him having a page on his website because he says that you aren't even a boxer until you have a certain amount of fights. His parents are keeping him well grounded and with Emmanuel Steward, he has great guidance. I look forward to seeing how he continues to progress.
his name is stephen pryor. i saw him fight buddy mcgirt(sp)'s son a while back. hes isnt anything like his father....
In what way is he different? Skill wise, or style wise?
both. hes an average fighter at best and he's more of a boxer than a straight up slugger. even tho aaron pryor was a toe-to-toe fighter he could box better than stephen.
Damn......
Aaron Pryor Jr. is a the brother to Stephen Pryor, i'm not sure if they are from the same family but they are totally different people. Pryor Jr has had only 8 fights stephen has had more and has lost two or so.
although i have seen Jr. fight once out here in vegas, i've seen Stephen fight a couple of times on tv and stephen was far from impressive. Jr. on the other hand looked ok but very green, he fought to a decision but he wasn't as active as his pops.
Aaron Pryor Sr. is in my top 3 of all time, he was one of the greatest fighters ever at 140 and was nothing but action!!!! never a dull fight, ever!

damn man give him a break he's only fought like 10 times!

He was fighting a bum KO'd him in 1 I believe. He uses the same nickname as his dad too.
He's tall and has long arms, he was looking really good while he was fighting the bum.
I think he might have been on ShoBox, but not quite sure. Yeah he has the genetics. Your right if he is half as exciting as his dad that would be great. Saw an HBO special on the Arguello/Pryor fight. Never really knew much about Pryor, but he seemed very exciting. Never really got the recognition he deserved.
What time is it? It's HAWK Time!

I dont know.
I dont even care if he's as talented. If he's half as entertaining as his dad i would watch him everytime.
He cant be a bum, i mean his dad had to teach him SOMETHING.
