Tribute to Hawk - The man who would have defeated Floyd Mayweather Jr.(51 mb video)

No there is no proof.

So you are calling Butch Lewis, a liar? Saying he risked his entire reputation, just to say Leonard was KD by Pryor? When in fact him and Leonard were well known friends?

what about Pryor's manager? Calling him a liar as well out of bias?

How is that sick? The sport is boxing.

[oldgringo]

if anyone is overrated it's SRL..

- when Hagler yelled to Leonard, "Fight like a man!" Leonard said "No, no, no" and was happy to continue to run. Leonard himself tells that story and he is sickly proud of it.

- Leonard had an elaborate press conference at the Garden (with Hagler there) just to announce he will retire and not fight Hagler. Look at me, give me more and more attention, shine the spotlight on me, please mommy.

- Leonard lost his biggest fight of his career - Duran I.

- Leonard was very, very talented, but chose to win fights with silly flurries at the end of a round. Stealing the round they call it and moronic fans used to go crazy over it. Real fight fans used to spit at their TVs when Leonard pulled that crap.

- Leonard rigged the Hagler fight to favor him. Whatever happened to fighting a guy in his prime in a standard sized ring for fifteen rounds, Ray? Is that too much for you?

- Leonard was a girl in the ring, not a man

I hate Leonard for many of the reasons that you do, but he was still an incredible fighter.

The biggest fight of his career was the Thomas Hearns welterweight unification, not Duran I.

What you have is a very polished, talented, big and strong fighter vs an unpolished, raw, menacing smaller fighter. Ray would have beaten him thoroughly.

This wasn't at Madison Square Graden...if that's the "garden" you're referring to....

It happened in either Baltimore or D.C....not sure which one.
But, I know it wasn't in NYC.

Are you kidding me?

Am I calling Butch Lewis a liar? YES I AM CALLING BUTCH LEWIS A LIAR. If you knew anything about boxing you'd call Butch Lewis a liar aswell dumbass.

Yeah that Butch Lewis what a credable guy there.

are you that ****ing dumb? what makes you think I'm iwatch because we both gave you bad karma? it's well known that I'm white and he's puerto rican..shut the **** up already


and i find it comical a little pissant nobody like jose who spends his life on a boxing forum thinks he has the balls to discredit butch lewis, if you think hes such a liar then why dont you post some facts? ****ing ant.


Jose, you remind me of those ***** white guys on that movie Celtic Pride. They had so much sports memorabilla, and had such vast sports knowledge, yet they were both ******* IRL, one a gym teacher, the other guy was unemployed.

really reminds me of you, you have this vast knowledge of all sports, praise everyone elses accomplishments, yet you lack the balls to compete in a sport and make a name for yourself..

zero respect for you,you've gotten used to newbie kids who kiss your ass just because of your post count

I had some extra time yesterday so I decided to make this film about my favorite 'little guy', Aaron 'Hawk' Pryor. In recent years we have been subjected to a large amount of fighters that just up and quit the fight, including the great Mike Tyson.One of the reasons I admire Aaron is he would never dream of quitting, he didn't care whether or not he lived or died in the ring. You'll never see Pryor get knocked down and spit out his mouthpiece to buy himself time to recooperate like cheapo corrales did. My second favorite little guy is Chavez of course, but in my opinion nobody had the same ferocity and warrior mentality as Pryor. He has to be the #1 mentally adept fighter of all time, next to Marvin Hagler.Every time Hawk entered that square circle it was life or death to him, he'd rather die in there than quit.



We need more fighters like Aaron. The average guy takes a look at Boxing and thinks it's just a show, what it really is is much more than just a show; Sigfried and Roy, and the dancing girls, and David Copperfield, those are shows, Boxing is not a show. It's where each man risks his well being every second of every round to prove himself to the gods of boxing, striving to each write their own page in the book of the sweet science.

PS- I honestly believe Pryor would beat Floyd Mayweather Jr, without Panama Louis

I can't believe it...I never knew you were a Pryor fan...

Pryor is my favorite fighter of all time next to Hagler and Hearns, thats so cool that your a fan of the hawk..
