    I think that Aaron Pryor would have been too much for Mayweather, he had a swarming pressuring style that would have greatly troubled Mayweather, his agression would have been effectual unlike Ricky Hattons.

      Hard fight for Floyd. I favor Floyd by decision because he always does well with agressive punchers. Pryor left a lot of openings when he was in bull mode. Considering I think this was really Floyd's strongest weight cant bet against him.

        I think that someone like Castillo almost defeated Mayweather and Pryor was more effective than Castillo with more power, I think that Pryor would outlast and force Mayweather to brawl with him, which would be VERY BAD for Mayweather, I just dont see how Mayweather can win here

          Floyd would get hit no doubt. I just think he can settle in and catch Pryor because he telegraphs his punches a little.

            I know but Pryors got a good chin considering he was able to take Arguellos punches whos one of the p4p greatest punchers and hes also very fast, i jsut think that hed overwhelm Mayweather

              I'd lean on Mayweather UD but then again he didn't do much at 140.

                Remember Arguello was out of his depth at 140, though. Although he did hang with him in the first fight.

                Arguello probably punches harder than Mayweather at 140 mind you.

                    If he could take Arguellos punches then he would walk through Mayweathers, Stylistically hes one of the worst match ups for Mayweather i can think of
