the Pryor-Arguello Legendary Nights straight up says that and doesn't have Leonard comment, despite him being on the show.
Some guy literally said "i dont wanna say nothing..but i heard leonard move up to get away from Aaron pryor!" So he could fight Thomas Hearns and Roberto Duran? Ok then.
That was promoter Butch Lewis and he does admit thought that that was a rumor and didn't know if it was true.
Check your time lines GZ. By the time Pryor would have even been considered as a worthy opponent(around Arguello 1), Leonard was already retired with a detached retna. And by the time Leonard returned to challenge Hagler at middleweight Pryor was through as a force.
Alright one of us is reading something wrong i dont know who it is
