    This is a great matchup. As it was the case in the Hatton fight, Pryor's style is such that Mayweather would HAVE TO fight. Pryor's defense was leaky enough that he might regret making Mayweather fight.

    Pryor would surely be the best pressure fighter Mayweather had ever faced, but Pryor never seen anything remotely like Mayweather.

      I doubt it.
      I dont think Floyd has great power, but Robinson didnt have a great chin.
      He was dropped and definitly had "chinny" moments throughout his career.

        The bout would be at 140.

        Name Floyd's opponents at 140. Bruseles, Corley, and Gatti.

        I'll take Arguello and Cervantes over those bums any day of the week.
        who pbf fought at 140 doesnt exactly mean he couldnt beat pryor

        id also take arguello and cervantes over those but id also take pbf over them 3

          You mean Pryor? Yes he was dropped a few times because he is wild but he was never hurt at all. Looked more like flash knockdowns where he was off balance moving forward.
          I don't think there are any questions about Pryor's chin he took Arguello's right like no one else ever did.

            Arguello started his career at 126. He was not the same puncher at 140.

                Mayweather would win.

                  Floyd breaks down Pryor in 10.
                  breaks down Pryor? Good one.

                    Pryor is a good fighter but Floyd is a different breed of fighter because he just not using speed or power or combos but is the way he uses his stuff combined make him an ATG. jab, striaght right, hooks, uppercuts...etc is just tools to win Floyd knows how to used them pretty well and at 140 it Floyd best weighclass.

                      Pryor would show Mayweather pressure fighting like he's never seen in his life, but Mayweather would show Pryor defense and accurate counterpunching like Pryors never seen. Don't get me wrong, Arguello is one of the best counter-punchers in the game, but he does take alot of shots. Honestly I'd call it a toss.
