Some Of You Are Professional Haters: Get a life

[The Gambler1981]

Leonard did not fight Pryor because Pryor was unhappy with the offer of half a million. Pryor discussed this after his fight with Lennox Blackmoore.

Pryor did not fight Duran because he had managerial problems when he got an offer to fight Duran (at 150 lbs.). By the time he got those managerial problems cleared up, the offer was off the table.

Incidentally, managerial issues (and a gunshot wound) messed up another bout for Pryor, a unification bout at 140 with Mamby.

Did he get shot in Detroit? I was talking about boxing with this guy he brought that up and I had no clue what he was talking about. He knew his stuff but we were drinking so he was mixing up certain things so I had no clue if that was true or not.

I don't know where he was. His wife (at the time) shot him.
