      Which is it IYO ?
      Morales vs. JMM
      If Marquez loses to PBF, this is a very sound possibility.

            Because Leonard "low-balled" Pryor by offering him $500,000.

              Hey stealer, how do you see this fight going?

              I personally see Leonard destroying the Pryor myth.

              What do you think?

                I don't like Pryor's chances against the top guys at 147. Leonard should win.

                Hearns as a pro at 147 would've wasted Pryor worse.

                Pryor was still a terrific fighter, despite his relatively weak resume.

                  Bowe-Lewis was the one fight of the above that I think the public missed out the most on.

                  It led to the splintering of the HW titles in the 90s that lasted until 1999 (and then it got splintered right again after unification).

                  It was also a pre-cursor to some of the bull**** HBO did, allowing fighters to make millions in mismatches. I mean it's always happened but seemed to get worse and worse after Bowe and Newman pimped HBO.

                    Naz vs Floyd at 130.....the build up might've been better than the actual fight

                      The build-up would've been great.

                      Then Mayweather would've schooled Hamed in the ring.
