    This. Hope you like the karma.

    The only thing arguably close in this fight is who's love was bigger for *******.

    Whitaker probably make him look like a B level fighter winning a wide decision.
    Appreciated, friend.

      Pryor wasn't unduly troubled by Kameda, though, in my view. Pryor at his most blindly offensive was always open to replies and being caught off-balance and Kameda was game and a good puncher, so, I see it that Pryor's troubles in the fight were more ostensible; that's to say they were attributable less to the southpaw stance/style of Kameda than his battling heart and punching power when he would inevitably land, IMO. That one seemed like a fairly typical Pryor beatdown as I recall it.

        Salaamu alaykum akhi, he had more trouble than expected against an unranked unknown I think it was a combination of his reach, heart as you say and his southpaw stance. It just seemed like he was able to pick his shots better due to being a southpaw if I recall correctly been some time since I've seen that fight, maybe I'm just putting 2 and 2 together, I'm not sure Kameda was all that powerful, he never stopped anyone relevant.
