    They need to put Pryor in Fightnight. This would become onesided IMO.

I think the fact that Pryor has decent speed to go with his power would result in Mayweather being stopped. In a 12 round fight. Poll to follow, discuss..
        defense wins championships floyd by SD.

          i guarantee you all, the 2005 mayweather would have dominated pryor in his prime, the one that fought gatti. pryor has never faced any fighter as intelligently gifted as floyd jr in that ring ever, and you all know it. it's not pryor's chin, it's not his non stop punching ability, it's pryor ring smarts. floyd is the most methodically thinking fighter of the last 4 decades, his ring smarts seperates him from pryor and his defense is on a much higher level also, which is something pryor would need to beat floyd, not non-stop punching. floyd is too smart a fighter. he can take any fighter out of thir gameplan, i guarantee you he defeats pryor.

            If dropping old adages is the key to this fight then.. The best offense is a good defense. Pryor by TKO11.

                Dude JL Castillo pressed and made PBF uncomfortable and almost won imagine what the HAWK would do? Hawk Late KO.

                  The Pryor that fought 14 brutal, grueling rounds against Arguello? Mayweather could bring a boxing-encyclopedia into the ring. There isn't enough ring smarts to compensate.

                    Floyd had an injured rotator cuff, he gave a rematch and won handily

                    I'm sick of people using how Floyd barely beat Castillo so he must instantly lose to other fighters

                    I'm also shocked that so many people pick Pryor by KO, lesser fighters have gone the distance with Pryor

                    The fight would go to the cards, Floyds defence is too good to have him being Koed by someone as open as Pryor

                    Floyd could also make adjustments and had excellent ring smarts, Floyd could punch too, Pryor would feel Floyds punches through accumulation, Floyd is not feather fisted like Malignaggi


                    Floyd also has a good chin and coupled with his defence would ensure that he could stand up to pryor


                    Pryor wins the early rounds but Floyd comes on strong with his superior defence and ring savvy while counterpunching the onrushing Pryor

                    Floyd Decision ( as long as their are no mixed bottles LOL )

                      Pryor decision might be more fair. However I still have the Pryor decision in a close battle.
