    Listen, be honest with yourself or go watch some Pryor fights, you obviously ent seen none.
    d00d, Pryor wasn't ****.

    im tellin u dat fighters frum back in da day cant hold a candle to modern athleets.

    Pryor would be lucky to land 3 punches on an athleet as wicked and awesome as "money may".

    did u see what he did 2 da big show?

    an dat d00d was like 500lbs, and 7 feet tall.

    money may by death.

      But he adapted in the Arguello fight. When he was coming in, he realised he was getting caught then started coming from different angles.

        duran would have beating him.i think duran was pretty difficult to hit, and think he would have hurt floyd.
        Man, Pryor did better in the rematch w/out the bottle if you remember.

        I think Leonard threw too many fast and flashy combos for Floyd to "potshot" his way to victory. He would have to fight his ass off to win, could he do it, YES, would he do it, well......As for Pryor, dude was a beast. That's probably the only person Leonard ducked for real. I know Ray said to himself, "Ain't no way I can beat this fool." He never got tired either so Floyd couldn't depend on him wearing down. Floyd has all the talent in the world, but Pryor would be too much. Pryor was the absolute truth. Too bad he never got a real shot at the big big time.

              Arguello does not fight like Floyd, he wanted to hurt and take out his opponent. To me that is a trap with Pryor, if you go in there to hurt him you are fighting at your own peril, but if you go in there with the thought of totally outboxing him (with the skills to actually do it) I think you could have success against him).

              To beat Pryor I think you have to be willing to make the crowd boo, and I think Mayweather has that mentality.

                Yeh i no man, pretty sad. I think Leonard ducked him. When he called him out in that press conference, Leonard werent having ****.

                    I thought of this, but in every Mayweather fight theres always a period in which he takes a back step and lets his opponents punch. He always does this and relies on his defense to prevent the punches hurting him. But with a guy like Pryor, he wont be able to afford to do that. The minute Floyd gives him time, Pryor has the power to seriously hurt him.

                    And Floyd can be on the back foot the whole night, but Pryor doesnt tire. He'll be chasing Floyd round the ring the whole night.
